Visitacion Valley Transit-Oriented Development (VVTOD) Project
Located in San Francisco’s Visitacion Valley neighborhood,
the 20-acre project site
was once the home of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company (SPRR)
railyard and the Schlage Lock Factory, transferred to Universal Paragon Corporation (UPC), and now being developed by Visitacion Development LLC. The site is the subject
of:
- Existing commuter rail, including two stops on San Francisco
Muni’s T-Third Street light-rail in addition to a CalTrain
station.
- The closed Schlage Lock Company factory, one of the last
machine-making operations in San Francisco, including a historic
office building that will be preserved and is eligible to be
listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
- A national model for community-based redevelopment planning.
- A U.S. Green Building Council pilot study site for sustainable
neighborhood development (LEED ND).
- The highest degree of environmental remediation prior to development,
restoring the earth to above-standard conditions.

GOALS FOR THE SCHLAGE LOCK SITE
The goals for the Schlage Lock site lead toward the kind of growth
that will increase the overall quality of the community and
the region – economic
revitalization, transit-oriented growth, and improvements in
quality of life. The community has articulated goals to create
a livable, mixed-use urban community; a site design that encourages
walking, biking, and the use of mass transit; and a network
of well designed open spaces, public resources and amenities.
UPC has articulated these fundamental
goals in the proposed development of our property in Visitacion
Valley.
