Do you agree or disagree that these are opportunities in the Area?
Do you agree or disagree that these are challenges in the Area?
Are there other opportunities or challenges? Mitchell Park and Ramos park are in walking distance of most of the development area, so there are good parks already. Cubberly needs ongoing maintenance as an important community space, and I know Cubberly's role is a challenge. Bike connections to the baylands bike trails are a specific challenge for bike facilities.
Which potential new uses are important to include? Select all that apply Residential (multifamily residential units such as condos or rental apartments), Office (such as accountants and consulting firms, real estate offices, dentists, small clinics, travel agencies, co-working spaces, etc.), Retail (such as small groceries, corner stores, florists, small bakeries, ice cream shops, coffee shops, dry cleaners, bookstores, etc.), Service commercial (such as auto repair, home improvement centers, hardware stores, garden centers, etc.), Light industrial (small-scale research and development, manufacturing, laboratories, etc.), Flex spaces (live/work units, maker spaces, etc.)
As resident population increases, there will be a growing need for neighborhood-serving retail and services.
Which of the following do you think are the most important to have?
Select your top three. Small grocery store (including fresh produce), Convenience store/pharmacy, Restaurant with dining, including outdoor dining
What types of publicly accessible outdoor spaces would you like to see in the area? Select your top three. Pedestrian passages, Pocket plaza, Pocket park
Which of these qualities do you think are very important for outdoor spaces to have? Please select your top 3. Seating, Shade , Public conveniences
Are there examples of outdoor spaces that you think will work well here? The connections (paths, crossings) from Mitchell Park towards the development area are good and can be continued SE. I do like the idea of pocket plazas or pocket parks at or between the Costco and San Antonio.
Improve existing and add new pedestrian and bicycle facilities (sidewalks, bike lanes, multi-use paths, etc.), including intersections and crossings, to provide safe and convenient access for all ages and abilities to nearby retail, employment, recreational, open space and other destinations.

Are there any other ideas related to mobility that you’d like to share? Cubberley, Mitchell Park and Middlefield ball park are magnet destinations that have drawn me to the area 100 times in the last couple years. While I have biked there sometimes, I do more often drive there but then I may walk around and get a coffee and drop in at the library (e.g. while waiting for baseball practice to be over). I'd love to extend that neighbourhood feeling to the other side of San Antonio where there are also important community and retail locations but less of a walkable neighborhood to enjoy.

Are there examples of outdoor spaces that you think will work well here? Since there are a lot of office spaces in the area - an outdoor space where people could have lunch during the day - maybe even space where a couple food trucks could pull in and create a pop-up experience. Something that caters to the daytime office crowd, not a tot lot. There are other bigger/better spaces for that.
