March 2017 Downtown Dimension Highlights

Here are my notes from the latest edition of Downtown Dimension:
  • VTA is trying to cut the free DASH shuttle in Downtown San Jose, but is getting strong protest against doing so.
  • Building owners are investing major renovation dollars into their buildings, including 1 W. Santa Clara, 325 S. First, 52-78 E. Santa Clara, 14 S. Second, and several others. These will receive new facades as well as other modernizations.
  • The Pierce now has a flashy public art project called Voxel Cloud on its roof, which can easily be seen from 280.
  • Ford has agreed to help expand Bay Area BikeShare. San Jose will go from 150 bikes to 1,000 bikes.
  • Toasted Craft Sandwiches and Pizzetta 408 are both now open in the SoFA market.
  • Nate LeBlanc is joining the SJDA as a business development manager. His previous roles include being the general manager of the SoFA market, ops director for Moveable Feast, and the manager of the San Pedro Square Market.
