Google and the city of San Jose have a vision for a new Silicon Valley: compact, walkable and accessible by public transportation, a stark departure from the suburban sprawl that has brought the cradle of American technological innovation to the brink of a gridlocked meltdown.

The San Jose City Council will vote Tuesday on whether to offer Google exclusive negotiating rights for parcels of city-owned land next to Diridon train station, part of a plan to transform 250 acres of downtown San Jose into a transport hub connected to office towers and apartments.

Clearly, there is room to structure to increase efficiency.
