Brisbane Baylands development

About

The Brisbane Baylands is a 660-acre (270 ha) parcel of land in Brisbane, California, United States, just south of the San Francisco border. There have been several proposals to develop the site, which was previously used as a railyard and a municipal landfill; historical uses have led to contaminated soil and polluted stormwater runoff. None of the present proposals have been approved by Brisbane's city council.

The approximately triangular site is oriented primarily north–south and is bounded by Bayshore Boulevard to the west, the Bayshore Freeway to the east, and the San Francisco–San Mateo County line to the north; it includes Brisbane Lagoon as the southernmost extent, although no development is planned for the lagoon. The primary road through the site is Tunnel Avenue, running north–south. Commuter rail service is provided by Caltrain at Bayshore station located at the center of the site, the Muni Metro T Third line provides light rail service to San Francisco along the west border of the site at Arleta station and Sunnydale station.
