  • THE FUTURE of the BERRYESSA BART STATION a Rare Chance to Shape Growth Around San Jose’S First BART Station
    THE FUTURE OF THE BERRYESSA BART STATION A rare chance to shape growth around San Jose’s first BART station SPUR ARTICLE Published on July 10, 2014 The primary author of this report was Sarah Karlinsky with assistance from Ratna Amin, Ben Grant, Gabriel Metcalf, Egon Terplan, Leah Toeniskoetter Urban Design and Graphics: Lewis Knight, Jin Zhao, Xiao Wu and Gabriella Folino of Gensler. All images courtesy Gensler unless otherwise noted. Special thanks to all those who reviewed this article. SPUR 654 Mission St., San Francisco, California 94105 www.spur.org SPUR | July 10, 2014 BERRYESSA BART: THE OPPORTUNITY San Jose has a unique chance to shape growth around its first BART station, Berryessa. From Berryessa, the extension of BART into San Jose will potentially include a stop in the Five Wounds neighborhood to the east of downtown, a stop in downtown itself and a stop at San Jose’s Caltrain/Amtrak/high-speed rail station, Diridon. It is a rare opportunity for a city to receive regional rail service like BART. Developing land uses around Berryessa Station that help support BART ridership will be key to the success of this station — and the future of the area around it. This means new development needs to be of the type and intensity that will encourage people to walk from the station to this development and vice versa. Getting the urban design and circulation right will also be key. Will the station area be a place that people feel comfortable walking to and from? Will new buildings meet the street, or will they be inward facing and surrounded by parking? Will sidewalks connect people to where they want to go? Will it be easy to access the BART station by foot, bicycle and other transit, or will there be too many conflicts with cars? Substantial planning has already been done at both Berryessa Station and at the largest adjacent site that could accommodate new development, the San Jose Flea Market, which sits just to the west of the BART station.
