TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT  is the exciting new fast growing trend in creating vibrant, livable communities. Also known as Transit Oriented Design, or TOD, it is the creation of compact, walkable communities centered around high quality train systems. This makes it possible to live a higher quality life without complete dependence on a car for mobility and survival.

With 3 completed TOD projects, and more than 10 Future TOD Projects in the Bay Area, Barry Swenson Builder is taking the initiative and leading by example to prepare for the next generation of residential housing and mixed use projects.
