Master Plan

What else is the the works?

Project Site at Rinconada Dr.

Project site at Rinconada Drive

A new park is coming to Rinconada Drive, adjacent to the Almaden Expressway and Curtner Avenue off-ramp. Plans are moving forward to develop 1.4 acres into a community park with a playground, walking loop, small pollinator garden, public art, and a bioretention area to help capture and clean stormwater.

As part of the City of San José’s efforts to improve water quality and create more recreation, learning, and cultural spaces in nearby neighborhoods, the community will also have the opportunity to help name the new park.
