Taking Santa Clara Street from Bland to Grand
September 7 @ 12:30 pm - 1:30 pm
Free
Santa Clara Street is San José’s “main drag” and the main spine through downtown – but what does it say about San JosĂ©? So much of its colorful history was erased by cars. In late 2023, the City will begin a process to re-envision Santa Clara Street. What will it take for San JosĂ© to take pride in Santa Clara Street? Together, we will learn from the efforts to “re-enchant” and reimagine one of the world’s best-known boulevards, the Champs-ElysĂ©es, as the center of public life in Paris, and ponder what lessons we can apply to Santa Clara Street’s own re-enchantment.
