San Antonio Station is a landscape and architectural retrofit project that transforms an introverted site into an open, connected, and flexible campus landscape. Originally Mayfield Mall, California’s first enclosed shopping mall, the reinvigorated site is named after its proximity to a Caltrain station. The property boasts 500,000 sf of ready-built office space in the heart of Silicon Valley, and is just 45 minutes from San Francisco by train but lacked the improvements needed for the tech office space environment. The master plan for the project emphasizes landscape amenities and thoughtful circulation, and melds an efficient plan with the site’s existing character. The landscape design takes inspiration from the 1960s graphics and geometries popularized during its earlier iteration as well as from existing structures and materials.
The final design is an eclectic campus landscape that borrows from the character of the old to create a great new place to work, winning the 2015 Structures Award for Best Reuse/Rehab from the Silicon Valley Business Journal.
