3000 Bowers Ave. Meeting | Dec. 11, 2025

The City of Santa Clara held a community meeting to discuss the 3000 Bowers Avenue project, a proposed advanced manufacturing facility developed by the Sobrato organization. The project involves constructing a 144,000 square foot building on a seven-acre site, featuring office space, warehouse areas, and extensive sustainability measures including LEED Gold certification, EV charging infrastructure, and native landscaping. The design emphasizes functionality, pedestrian safety, and aesthetic appeal with contemporary architectural elements. The project aims to revitalize a vacant parcel with a financially feasible commercial use aligned with city zoning and land use guidelines. The development is currently in the planning review process with targeted approval in Q1 2026, building permit review underway, and construction anticipated to start in fall 2026 with completion in 2027.
