San Jose developer Gary Dillabough on pandemic, WeWork’s Adam Neumann and world-class architecture [Mercury News]
Jan. 10 SAN JOSE I reached Gary Dillabough on a day he was going into contract on a new property in downtown San Jose. So what else is new with a guy who has bought up more than 30 prime properties here over the past three years?
The Atherton developer and venture capitalist has big plans to transform the downtown of America’s 10th largest city to live up to its catch-phrase, the Capital of Silicon Valley. But more than bricks, mortar and square feet, he and his Urban Community company have visions of a new kind of eco-friendly city that takes cues from the great cities of Europe and the U.S.
But no amount of problem-solving could have prepared the museum for what came in 2020. It s the first time we ve ever been closed like this, Tech Interactive President and CEO Katrina Stevens said. We had no notice, the same as everyone else, that we had to shut our doors and everyone had to go home. We thought maybe, it would be a couple weeks?
Overnight these once busy exhibits closed and they ve been this way since March.
Tech President and CEO Katrina Stevens knew they had to find a way to continue. At the heart of the Tech s mission is to make innovators and problem solving skills, Stevens said. So we realized, when the pandemic hit and we had to close our doors that all the staff would have to put those skills to work.
