February 2018 Downtown Dimension Highlights

Here are my notes from the latest edition of Downtown Dimension:
  • A final decision on BART's subway path beneath Downtown should come in the next few months, with construction starting as soon as 2019. The SJDA is strongly advocating for a single bore tunnel which would allow the subway to be built without digging up all of Santa Clara Street.
  • Groundwerx is celebrating 10 years Downtown and has issued a new report at sjdowntown.com/groundwerxpbid
  • Construction has began on San Pedro Squared which will bring four micro-retail spaces to the ground floor of the Market-San Pedro Garage [Josh: awesome!].
  • Heroes Martial Arts has moved across the street to 450 S. First St.
  • Nox Cookie Bar is now open at 151 S. Second.
  • Vietnoms is bringing modern versions of classic Vietnamese dishes to SoFA Market.
  • The 47-room Plaza Hotel opened in January to homeless awaiting more permanent housing.
  • TMG Partners and Valley Oak Partners unveiled plans for a 1 million SQFT office at 440 W. Julian.
  • Cinequest returns Downtown from Feb. 27 to March 11th.
  • The San Jose Jazz Winter Fest takes place from Feb. 15-28.
