San Jose City Council to vote on VTA transit land for more affordable housing in Bay Area

  • Date: 08/09/2022

The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority is thinking of using extra land from some of its light rail stations as new mixed-use housing.

If approved, the affordable housing project would not only help San Jose with its housing need by building 328 apartments, but it would allow VTA to raise some much-needed additional operating funds.

It would take up seven and a half acres at VTA's Blossom Hill Light Rail Station.

In addition to the 328 apartments, it will also build commercial space and community room, as part of a vision to put housing and jobs where people would have easy access to transit.
