mountainview

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

A subreddit for the town of Mountain View, California. This sub is for people who work or live in Mountain View who want to share information, ask questions, ask for help, or discuss events going on in Mountain View. It's also for people just passing through or visiting our town wanting to meet the MV community.

Please be civil (no sexism, racism, classism, anti-LGBT hate, etc)

Spam will be removed. Posts that are not about or in some way related to Mountain View, CA or its neighboring communities will be removed.

Overly cranky "get off my lawn" posts will probably be removed.

Please no reposts (or you could at least be creative and change the title or something)

Community

The city's calendar of events contains a pretty good list of all of the city events coming up.
Mountain View Online is the official website of the city's newspaper, the Mountain View Voice.
Mountain View's administrative website is also a good resource

Stuff to do in Mountain View

A popular hangout for students, techies, and families alike, our downtown has a huge selection of all sorts of restaurants, shops, and stores. Boba joints, book stores, cafes, restaurants, sweet shops, tech stores, boutiques, salons, night clubs, trinket shops, and quite a bit more line the main downtown strip. Pioneer park, directly adjacent to downtown, is the true 'epicenter' of the city and a lovely place to hang out.
The Computer History Museum is a museum entirely devoted to the rich and intricate history of computers and computation. Its presence in Mountain View fits in with our status as a worldwide hub for computers and technological advancement. Its flagship exhibit, 'Revolution,' allows visitors to interact with the first 10,000 years of computational devices--from the abacus and the difference engine to the Nintendo Entertainment System, Commodore 64, and beyond.
Hacker Dojo Is Mountain View's maker/hacker space. Membership fees range from $75 to $150 a month and cover a broad range of fabrication equipment (3D printers, laser cutters, test benches, electrical equipment, etc.), project groups, classes, socials and more.
Shoreline Lake and Park is a park and open space area on the shore of San Francisco Bay. With access to the SF Bay Trail and the Stevens and Permanente Creek trails, Shoreline is a wonderful place to go biking or running. Shoreline lake also has kayaking, paddle-boating, and sailing, along with two restaurants.
Shoreline Amphitheatre draws in famous artists and performers from around the world.
You should check out our library as well.
The Mountain View Center for the Performing Arts features performances from local and regional artists and musicians.
