About the Project

The Hercules Hub is a regional, state-of-the-art housing and transportation development. It will connect thousands of housing units with a new train stop along the Capitol Corridor, bicycle and pedestrian pathways, bus routes, carpool options, and a future ferry service.  The Hub has all the components of the ideal regional housing and transit center and will be a model for thriving transit-oriented communities throughout the Bay Area.
