Redwood City Campus

Due to General Use Permit (GUP) limitations on core campus development, the university studied options for relocating administrative programs to off-campus sites, thus reserving core campus space for Stanford’s high academic priorities and objectives.

In September 2005, the university acquired the Mid-Point Technology Park (Mid-Point). Mid-Point is in Redwood City, approximately seven miles from the Stanford Campus. The site includes 536,569 gsf, which encompasses eight buildings on 29.4 acres. In addition, the Stanford Hospital and Clinics (SHC) has acquired the adjacent parcel that includes approximately 30,000 gsf, encompassing four buildings on eleven acres, to be developed for outpatient clinics.

Redevelopment of this site will be required and will commence over the next 3-5 years. The university is currently in the early phases of campus and site planning, program scoping, and conversations with Redwood City. There are many issues to be addressed, including the new vision for the new campus, the program for the campus buildings, traffic, environmental and other community impacts, costs of site redevelopment, and phases of redevelopment over time. The first phase of development is anticipated to include approximately 540,000 gsf of office space, a parking garage, a community health center building, and connective elements.
