Roadmap
The View at Julian Apartments project highlights the shift in San Jose development priorities following the 2023 pause of the Google Downtown West master plan. It demonstrates a move toward diversified residential projects near transit hubs after large-scale corporate developments faced delays.
The development provides a significant number of affordable housing units for very-low and moderate-income households near the city core. Prospective residents will benefit from proximity to Diridon Station and the SAP Center, though they must wait until late 2026 for occupancy.
