San Jose Municipal Water Facility

in

We’re proud to support the City of San José in the development of the new Municipal Water Facility through landscape architecture and civil engineering services. This project spans multiple phases including entitlement, design development, construction documentation, and construction administration, all with a focus on efficiency, sustainability, and user-centered design.
The facility includes key infrastructure such as an administrative building, a storage and maintenance building, and an on-site water tank. Security and accessibility were carefully planned, featuring a fully fenced perimeter, pedestrian and vehicular gates, and electric vehicle charging stations for both staff and fleet use.
Sustainability is a core element of the design. The site includes an integrated stormwater treatment system to ensure full compliance with environmental regulations. This project features employee-focused outdoor spaces designed to foster connection, relaxation, and activity. The entrance and concrete paving of the employee area are thoughtfully designed with patterns that nod to water-like waves, reflecting the facility’s purpose. Amenities include a shaded patio with dining tables, a custom table tennis setup, communal gathering areas, and both long and short-term bicycle storage to support an active lifestyle.
Landscape features include custom gabion benches, organic inspired walkways and retaining walls that add both functionality and visual interest. The planting design emphasizes low-water-use landscaping, featuring edible, fruit-bearing trees that contribute to a healthy environment. A smart irrigation system with moisture sensors and programmable controls promotes water efficiency, and the facility is ready for a future transition to recycled water.

Santa Clara University Golf Facility

in

Situated between the renowned Stevens Stadium and the Paul L. Locatelli Student Activities Center at Santa Clara University, this new development promises to be a hub of innovation and recreation.
At the heart of this project is a 1500 square foot building that will serve as a haven for SCU’s golf team and faculty. Inside, you’ll find a lounge where the team can connect with one another. There will be a virtual putting green, equipped with patented technology that can   dynamically change the slope and undulation of the ground to mimic any putting contour in golf.
The building will also house two golf simulators. These simulators go beyond the ordinary, utilizing an overhead ION3 Camera to measure ball impact and a combination of infrared technology and high-speed blue light LED cameras to track the ball in-flight.
In addition to the building, the project will also include a sprawling 5000 square foot synthetic putting green complete with strategically placed bunkers. This outdoor space will provide ample opportunities for practice.

SR-87/Capitol Expressway Interchange Improvement

in

The SR 87/Capitol Expressway Interchange Improvement project will improve vehicular access between northbound SR 87 and Capitol Expressway, provide high-quality, convenient, and comfortable accommodations for active transportation (bikes and pedestrians) and provide seamless connections between all modes of transportation.
The project will eliminate the existing hook ramps in the northbound direction connecting to Narvaez Avenue and instead replace them with a direct connection to Capitol Expressway. It will reconfigure the Capitol Expressway cross section to provide all the necessary travel lanes, bike facilities (Class IV bikeways), and pedestrian accommodations.
Narvaez Avenue will be right-sized to accommodate all transportation modes as well. The Capitol Expressway intersections will be squared up and upgraded to enhance service to bicycles and pedestrian users while maintaining a high level of service for vehicular traffic and LRT station access from Capitol Expressway will
be reconfigured.
HMH led the Alternative Analysis and preparation of the PSR-PDS to satisfy Caltrans requirements for the PID Phase. HMH is currently leading efforts in the PA&ED Phase in preparation of an EIR and PR.
