101 San Fernando

Twenty years ago, San Jose was synonymous with sprawl. Through policies that are now central to the Charter for the New Urbanism, $2.3 billion has been invested in a light rail system, a whole fabric of cultural facilities and institutions, and new downtown housing on a large scale. 101 San Fernando, this mixed-use, infill project located in the heart of San Jose, is part of this effort. The building consists of 322 rental units (with 1.75 cars per unit) and 10,000 SF of commercial space organized around a series of mid-block pedestrian lanes, which are accessed through large portals in the street wall as well as from secured parking areas.
