Scott Herhold, a writer for the San Jose Mercury News wrote an article for Sunday’s paper outlining some of his favorite contemporary architecture in Silicon Valley. His list included:

  • Plaza De Cesar Chavez, Downtown San Jose
  • Stephen Schott Stadium, Santa Clara University, Santa Clara
  • San Jose Marriott Hotel, Downtown San Jose
  • Central Park Library, Santa Clara
  • Googleplex, Mountain View
  • Circle of Palms, Downtown San Jose
  • Mountain View Civic Center, Downtown Mountain View
  • 60 S. Market Street, San Jose (Downtown)

While Scott’s list is heavily focused on public spaces and places, my list would include:

  • Santana Row
  • 225 W. Santa Clara Street, Downtown San Jose
  • VMWare Headquarters in Palo Alto
  • Oracle Headquarters in Redwood Shores

If there are buildings or projects in Silicon Valley that are on your list of favorites, please comment!
