'historic resource' named Steve Jobs house

Wednesday, October 30, 2013

The California house where Steve Jobs started Apple Computer has been designated a historic site by a Silicon Valley historical commission.


Any changes to the modest ranch-style house in Los Altos, which is already a tourist attraction, will now be subject to review by the commission.

Jobs, who started Apple in 1976, died in 2011 age 56.

His sister, the house's current owner, raised no objections, a Los Altos official said.
The designation was unanimously agreed, with one member of the commission absent.

"It's something the community can be proud of," Zachary Dahl, a staff liaison to the commission.
Jobs, Steve Wozniak and several other early Apple employees built the first 100 Apple I computers in the living room and the garage of the house. The company later moved to Cupertino.


Mr Dahl said Jobs' stepmother currently lives in the house.
