The building’s demise is causing road closures. El Camino Real’s eastbound lanes are currently closed. Sherwood Avenue remains closed until that building is going to be completely demolished.

The Los Altos businesses that were damaged were a cake shop, a salon, an SAT tutoring center, and a dance school.

The dance studio is looking for community assistance to get the studio back open. The studio has raised over $30,000 as of Tuesday morning with a goal of $100,000.
