Guzzardo Partnership Inc. is responsible for the landscaping. Documents show a broad array of trees, shrubs, ground covering, and vines are to be used across the board to help landscape a significant amount of outdoor space, with just 46% of the parcel covered by development. Maple trees, Palm trees, Magnolias, and Oak trees will be among the subjects to grow.
The address is just twelve minutes from the Santa Clara Central Park by foot. The public space is surrounded by a public library, retail, an elementary school, and baseball fields.
