Transcending the outmoded paradigm of the single-use office park, the North Bayshore Masterplan is a unique collaboration between Google, the City of Mountain View, and several design firms to establish a framework plan for a uniquely vibrant, diverse, inclusive, mixed-use urban community nested in a healthy, ecologically-rich environment.

The layered framework plan for North Bayshore includes over 34 acres of open space and natural areas, 7,000 new additional housing units, of which 15% will be affordable, education, and a variety of retail and community amenities.

Establishing a public realm that is rooted in place, benefitting both humans and nature.

Developing a versatile open space toolkit to permit replicability while offering unique experiences through the selection and placement of the programmatic drivers.
