Once a city in its own right, Willow Glen is located about 3 miles southwest of downtown San Jose, and includes all of the original town (founded in 1927 and annexed by the city of San Jose in 1936), along with many adjacent areas that have developed since then. The traditional boundaries of Willow Glen are the Guadalupe River, Los Gatos Creek, and Coe and Curtner Avenues. Founded and built by the city's Italian immigrant community, Willow Glen consisted of blocks of quaint bungalows and lush flower and vegetable gardens in its early days. Now, Willow Glen is regarded as one of San Jose's most walkable neighborhoods with tree-lined streets and well-kept homes. At its heart is its own main street, Lincoln Avenue, home to shops and a variety of restaurants--from old-style diners and delis to coffeehouses to modern Mediterranean trattorias. Neighboring streets make for perfect strolling, including a walk to Bramhall Park, with its mature trees, picnic tables, tennis courts and playground.
