(NGL: Seeing the ol' Lockheed Martin dishes to/from destinations along 237 / Alviso-Milpitas Road at night was a childhood treat.)

Quiet walk out at Alviso 🌾
Salt air, wide skies, birds cutting across the marsh, and that feeling of being just outside the rush of Silicon Valley.
Sometimes the calm sneaks up on you out there.

Vahl's maybe? I live not far away. I'm sure it's simplifying things a bit, but I understood it as after repeated ballots for San Jose to absorb Alviso (shore and waste possibilities), they won and then promptly scaled back infrastructure promises. Now techbros visit Top Golf, but that's about it.

Possibly the most isolated railroad crossing in San Jose. Connects the Alviso and Mallard trails way out in the Alviso marshlands with a legal crossing. If you do cross here, do be careful as the trains are doing about 75MPH and approach far quicker than they appear to.

I’m not sure how much longer it will be there as the rest of Alviso, unfortunately, disintegrates.

I don’t know what there is to study more. We know we need a double track rail line that doesn’t have a sharp curve, is up off the marsh so it doesn’t flood and can support 4-6tph in each direction. Only after this is done will we get to enviro and early design

Gold Street Bridge in Alviso, San Jose, California at high tide (10:37 AM)for the California #KingTides Project. (Had to detour on my ride there because the Guadalupe River Trail is flooded under 237!)

i miss sodium vapor. i wonder if alviso still has the monochromatic yellow LPS streetlights

As a native, I love the Bay. I just think Alviso is very unpleasant & certain eco systems would be better off w/o human intervention. I used the to live at Rivermark so I know Alviso very well 🤢

Look, we’re mocking the NFL and the York’s for trying to sell Levi’s as being more scenic & convenient than Candlestick. It’s a concrete box. Really doubt the crowd coming to an NFL game or monster truck rally at Levi’s are going to brave the stench to hike in Alviso.

LOL! Someone who has never been to the Bay Area.

I know your map shows blue but that’s a salt marsh/flat. Locals know that Alviso smell…

No. The new stadium is in Santa Clara. 2 counties down the peninsula. Perhaps you’ve never been to California, but that’s no where near the Bay. Alviso might touch the salt marshes that eventually reach the Bay but you cannot see any water from the new stadium.

SF South Bay levee ride from Alviso today. Rain is coming.

Alviso California had a bit of the opposite. It's a bay/marsh-side town with a history of flooding, but when San Jose built the Sharks Arena, it gave the river a place to flood before getting to Alviso,
and Alviso was able to stop them from "fixing" it because it would cause Alviso to flood again.
Ugh.
*head desk* ahh yes, the infamous council 'fixing' that 'looks right' and makes a glorious muck-up.
We have places like that too :P
