MORE SESSION DETAILS

Located 40 miles northeast of San Francisco, the CRP will redevelop 2,300 acres to world-class, transit-oriented development, providing 12,000 housing units, 27,000 jobs, and attracting up to 28,000 people at full buildout. The project also includes 2,700 acres of regional park providing conservation and open space.
