Next Generation Business Parks

The solution includes office park mixed-use housing in-fill creating the commonsense notion of "efficient human settlement patterns:" "work, home, and activities grouped within easy reach of each other." U.S. EPA was sufficiently enthused with the idea to fund a study entitled "Transforming Office Parks into Transit Villages." Small transit villages are terrific, but do not have a discernable impact when facing 50% Bay Area population growth. In contrast, "office park scale" transit villages encompass tens of thousands of people. "There’s a growing consensus to fix these places by turning them into efficient and sustainable suburban edge cities."
