Revitalizing the Area around Stockton’s Cabral Station
**********************************************************************
**Update: The Cabral Station Plan is now on display at the Stockton
train station lobby. Go check it out and give us your feedback!

With input from neighbors, businesses, local agencies, community
leaders and other stakeholders, ACE has developed a revitalization
plan that identifies a new vision for the neighborhood surrounding the
Robert J. Cabral Station in Stockton.

The plan envisions a new entryway and improved circulation for the
Cabral Station, improvements to surrounding streets, and ultimately
new housing and commercial development to complement the historic
station and surrounding Victorians, and improve the neighborhood’s
economy and vitality.

A display in the Cabral Station lobby provides highlights from the
neighborhood plan. In the next month or so, you’ll also be able to see
and comment on the design concept for the new entryway. We hope those
of you who use the Stockton station will stop in and see this vision
for the Cabral Station neighborhood.

For additional information, please go to the ACE website or contact
Thomas W. Reeves at thomas@... or (209) 944-6242.
