City officials and the San Jose Downtown Association unveiled a $795,000 beautification project Monday, where color and vibrancy are taking hold.
This project kicks off the city and downtown association's "Stitching Districts" initiative, which Mayor Matt Mahan said will build civic pride in the city's core by making it safer, more walkable and exciting.
Improving connectivity between downtown's various districts will make the city's center more inviting, especially with the upcoming Super Bowl 60 and the FIFA World Cup.
We want to make sure this is not only seen as something that's good for San Jose businesses and residents, but we also want to make sure this is for all of Silicon Valley.
