Hostess House originally served Camp Fremont as a meeting place for servicemen and visitors. After it was moved from its original site to Palo Alto, it became the first municipally sponsored community center in the nation. It is the only remaining structure from California’s World War I Army training camps. Julia Morgan designed it in 1918 for the YMCA, and it was dedicated one year later to those who died in this war.
