THE RAILYARDS PROJECT:
In March 2006, Thomas Enterprises submitted a revised Master Plan for the development of the downtown Sacramento Union Pacific Railyards.

PROJECT SIZE:
Approximately 240 acres; equivalent in size to the existing downtown central business district.

LOCATION:
The Sacramento Union Pacific Railyards, north of downtown Sacramento.

HISTORY:
The property is the site of the western terminus of the Transcontinental Railroad and later produced engines, cars, track and other equipment for the railroad. During its peak, the site housed the largest railroad facility of its kind west of the Mississippi and employed one third of all the workers in Sacramento.
