SAN JOSE — A transit agency has launched a legal process to officially seize ownership of key sites in downtown San Jose that are needed to construct and operate a future BART station.
The lawsuit that the VTA filed names several defendants: Property owner Goldrock Holdings and building tenants Mexico Bakery, 3rd and Bourbon restaurant and Enso Nightclub and Bar. “They continue to pursue to condemn and destroy a legacy building that houses many long-term and small minority-owned businesses and tenants,” Jalil said of the VTA’s actions in connection with the 91 and 97 East Santa Clara Street building.
Jalil expressed concern that the VTA’s actions will oust both commercial merchants and residential tenants in the building. “The property sought to be acquired in this action is necessary in order to construct, operate and maintain the east ventilation and emergency access facilities for the Downtown San Jose station,” the VTA claims in the lawsuit.
