Safeway
Los Altos, CA

The Safeway on First Street Ave in Los Altos was designed to replace an existing 25,000 SF Safeway store. Our design intervention maximized site efficiency by elevating the store onto a podium, freeing the ground level space for vehicle and bicycle parking, freight delivery, and the inclusion of a new pedestrian plaza. Other site features include landscaping along First Street, integral with the City of Los Altos’ Streetscape Improvement Plan, and a bio-filtration area for site water runoff.

SIZE:
45,000 SF grocery

KEY FEATURES:
Public plaza
Pedestrian thoroughfare
Bicycle parking
