If you aren't familiar with this neighborhood, it is incredibly pedestrian friendly, not only can you walk to all of those stores, it is located next to a Caltrain station.
- stevenwoo 8y agoWe have to give credit to the foresight of whoever planned this out, allowed it or luck, I remember about 20 years ago, there was a mall with a Sears and Montgomery Wards where the Safeway/3-4 story condos/apartments/restaurants are now and that Whole Foods was not there, though it seems as if San Antonio Road has had one lane or more blocked over that time continuously as buildings have been torn down/going up.
- ac29 8y agoInterestingly, that area was home to not just one mall, but three: http://web.archive.org/web/20080112061658/http://members.aol.com/MVNick/malls.htm http://web.archive.org/web/20080112061658/http://members.aol... I've been around long enough to remember the Old Mill, and San Antonio Shopping Center in its prime (if it had one), but Mayfield Mall was already HP when I was young.
