Santana Row, San Jose
Santana Row (abbreviated as SR or The Row) is a residential and commercial district of West San Jose in San Jose, California, in Silicon Valley. Santana Row is intersected by Stevens Creek Boulevard, a major Silicon Valley thoroughfare, and nearby to local landmarks like Westfield Valley Fair and the Winchester Mystery House.
Santana Row derives its name from Frank M. Santana, who served on San Jose's planning commission in the 1950s, who is also the namesake for the area's Frank M. Santana Park.
The 42-acre "village within a city" was developed as a luxury, mixed residential and shopping district between 2001-2002, for a cost of $450 million and was at the time regarded as "the most ambitious project of its kind in the United States". In 2010, it was called "an arguably successful mixed-use development".
Santana Row offers a mix of brand name shops, local boutiques, restaurants, 36 establishments serving food, nine spas and salons, a theater, and a hotel. Notable shops include: Gucci, Best buy, B8ta, Crate & Barrel, The Container Store and Tesla.
