September 2016 Downtown Dimension Highlights

Here are my notes from the latest edition of Downtown Dimension:
  • The craft beer scene is exploding Downtown. Four new breweries will soon join the five existing breweries in the area. Two are near SoFA:
    • Uproar Brewing Co. at 439 S. First St. (opens this Fall)
    • Camino Brewing just south of 280
  • Forager is a unique concept with craft taps and cafe rental space coming to the South First Billiards space at 420 S. First St.
  • Brew Bike takes tasters for a Downtown pub crawl on a giant bike (steering is done by a designated cyclist). More info at sanjosebrewbike.com.
  • Land needed for Modera at San Pedro Square has been cleared and the 201-unit residential project should begin construction in 2017.
  • The Pierce (232 apartment project in SoFA) will have their first move-ins later this Fall.
  • TeenHQ is now open at the Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Library. It includes a gamer lounge, recording studio, hangout zone, and makerspace. Visit sjpl.org/teenhq for more info.
  • Wework has opened five floors of co-working space at 75 E. Santa Clara Street, just about ISO Beers.
  • Intacct added a fourth floor with 20,000 SQFT to its corporate headquarters in the Riverpark II tower.
