As Menlo Park grew and spacious mansions sprouted up, Leland Stanford arrived who later was to buy himself a town--740 vacant acres that he named Palo Alto. But to the tremendous grief of his adoring parents, Leland Jr. was stricken with typhoid fever while the family was traveling in Turkey and died in 1884 at the age of 15. His parents then decided that they would dedicate their fortune to educational pursuits and Leland Stanford proclaimed, "The children of California shall be my children." So in 1885 the founding grant for Leland Stanford Junior University was executed. Construction began in 1887, and the university opened its doors to students four years later. The original site extended from San Francisquito Creek south to Embarcadero Road, and from El Camino Real to a ragged eastern boundary on the bay side. The new town was originally known as University Park, but Stanford preferred "Palo Alto," so he bargained to get the name from the area that is now College Terrace. Leland Jr. was just 15. Legend has it that the grieving couple said to one another after their son's death, "the children of California shall be our children," and they quickly set about to find a lasting way to memorialize their beloved son.
