Built in 1905 and originally the home of Dr. John Spencer, the first mayor of Palo Alto, the legendary Hewlett–Packard garage and house underwent a painstaking and thoughtful restoration by the company in 2005 to return them to their 1930s condition after years of alterations. The furnishings are also of the period when the company�s founders lived and worked there. Take a step back in time as you stand by the fireplace mantel. Here, in 1938, Bill Hewlett and Dave Packard first brought the prototype for their oscillator inside, placed it on the mantel, and took a picture of it. Venture into the adjoining room where Lucile Packard then typed up specifications at the dining room table, and you have HP�s first mailing to prospective customers. Each night, the Packards would move the dining room table, pull down the Murphy bed, and make their sleeping quarters. The painted panels for the oscillators were baked in the oven of the Wedgwood stove in the kitchen. Bill lived in the sparsely furnished rustic shed, which was fine with him.

He was focused on his work. The simple 12 x 18–foot garage is where it all started. This was HP�s first workshop and manufacturing facility. It was here that they developed their first product, the resistance tuned audio–oscillator, which was named Model 200A, so it would sound like the company had been around for a while. The garage itself is an example of true preservation. The design and materials are unchanged except for measures necessary to save it for the future. The structure was raised up six inches on a new concrete sill and received a steel frame, but the wall boards were numbered and re–used.
