Acquired by Leland Stanford circa 1887, Felt Lake was originally constructed by Job Johnston Felt in 1876 as part of his adjacent working ranch and farm. When purchased by Stanford, it became part of his vast land holdings. Thanks to the Stanford family, Stanford University today contains over 8,000 acres. Approximately 60% of this land remains as open space. Felt Lake demonstrates this land use.
