In the latest installment of the Sourisseau News, see what the Alameda Blvd looked like in 1880! Question for the historians out there...what happened to the electric railway on the Alameda?

The lesson here: trees make SJ beautiful, let's take care of them. I wonder if the current building projects are being mandated to replace trees they knock down in the construction process (no, really, beyond their utopian sketches). Downtown SJ w/out trees would be god-awful (and it's proven that trees UP real estate values)
ReplyDeleteI agree. We need more green spaces, particularly downtown as we get more high rises. San Jose had such a rich and cultured past. It's time to bring that tradition and heritage back.
