Closed as of March 31, 2014. These domes are in danger of demolition by Federal Realty (owner of Santana Row) The Domes were all designed by Vincent Raney. Century 21 is the oldest theater on the property as it has turned 50, with landmark status in the works for it. Please sign the petition to Save the Domes. http://www.change.org/petitions/save-the-winchester-domes

I can't believe this place is still in existence. I used to skate here in the late 70s/early 80s.

During the 1950s, several landfills in the Alviso area accepted wastes from an asbestos cement pipe manufacturing facility. This waste was later used for raising the grade of the site and for constructing a ring-levee, resulting in asbestos contamination throughout the Alviso area and covering roughly 330 acres. The Site was listed on the Federal Superfund list in 1985. I believe these buildings were built on a portion of the superfund site.

South Bay Yacht Club, PCmaps wrote 11 years ago:

Visited in the summer of 2012, and the Marina was just as pictured, with the three fishing boats tied to the north portion of the dock, which was still accessible to the water, and appeared to be used. The balance of the marina and docks were silted in and completely overgrown. As pictured, there were still a few boats moored in the central part of the docks, but the boats were locked in & stranded by the overgrown vegetation. Clubhouse still looked in good shape.

is there an existing photo of the sign that existed, at least, into the 1980's with the hotel's name? apparently the sigh was destroyed when the building was restored (razed?).

This is the location where J.J.Montgomery - an aviation pioneer, the first to make controlled unpowered flights in heavier than air aircraft in 1884, long before the Wright brothers - was working on some of his gliders and where he eventually died in an accident.
