SACRAMENTO, Calif. 31 acres of land surround the Sacramento Valley Historic Train Depot, and if the city of Sacramento has its way, that land could change the way people experience travel and the city itself.
Nestled near downtown Sacramento, Old Sacramento, the riverfront, and railyards, the land around the historic depot is about to go through a transformational process. It s a transformation where the concepts of traveling, working, living, playing and learning come together and establishes the depot as a gateway into the city for both residents and travelers.
