"Shopping Plazas and Auto Service"

The above title can sum up Independence Avenue as just that - a nondescript industrial street that is home to a major shopping plaza, some auto service shops...and all of the services needed to sustain the aforementioned. Fast food chains are about the only eating options you will find here, although they fit the Silicon Valley mold of Starbucks and Chipotle.

The road is near Charleston and parallels 101, but because it is a small side street, traffic is not a massive issue until you hit the main road again. Like all Mountain View shopping plazas, the local human traffic is as diverse as the Peninsula itself.
Pros
  • Good parking
  • Good for errands
  • Not much traffic on the road itself
Cons
  • Crowded
  • Neighboring traffic is an issue
  • Limited dining options
