New facilities, which were large to fit the new equipment
or justify the cost of the investment, only fit on the
outskirts of existing cities or in new “industrial suburbs”
along existing or planned rail lines.

Early 1900’s Sunnyvale was conceived of a railroad served factory town
similar to those along the shores of the Great Lakes.
Sunnyvale has always been

But Why are we
driving so much?
14© Freedman Tung + Sasaki 2014
23
The Myth:
Americans drive so much because
we love our cars and we love to
drive.
We are not going to change
because we don’t want to.
© Freedman Tung + Sasaki 2014
The Truth: We Drive so
much in response to our
Pattern of Land Use &

Recession  a record number
of foreclosures and historically
slow sales/ construction…
FORECLOSURE ACTIVITY
© Freedman Tung + Sasaki 2014
27
… especially in California
© Freedman Tung + Sasaki 2014
But when you look a little more closely…
Central Los Angeles – every 600 homes
< 20 miles =
every 200 homes
20 - 40 miles =
every 100 home
> 40 miles =
every 50 homes

Nationally, “housing prices
in walkable urban places
have [a three-fold] premium
over drivable single-family
housing. . . .
[this reflects] the dramatic
shift in values that has
taken place over that time
period”
…Urban Locations are Holding Value Better

With significantly less labor needed
to move and make things, people
can spend more time thinking,
strategizing, and analyzing
(augmented by computing power)

become the primary wealth-generator
in the new economy.

What can we learn
about innovation from
Silicon Valley?
Based on: Christophe Lécuyer - Making silicon valley© Freedman Tung + Sasaki 2014

In the early 1900’s the Bay Area’s economy
was centered around San Francisco as a
major financial center and hub of trade.
There was a relatively small manufacturing
base which primarily served the regional
market.
