Construction began on the Fruitvale Transit Village in Oakland, California, in November. The $100 million, mixed-use project is centered on the Fruitvale Bay Area Rapid Transit station. A retail and entertainment paseo will replace a current parking lot. Also included in the plan by McLarand, Vasquez & Partners are a health
facility, community resource center, public library, senior citizens center, executive offices, 47 loft units, and a 150-car parking garage. u
