San Jose: Valley Fair remodel sneak peak
Full story:
Fountains that spout fire and water. A new wing with a glittering glass roof. Fifteen new designer labels on the order of Prada and Gucci and 10 open-air restaurants. They’re all part of Westfield Valley Fair’s massive $1.1 billion renovation, along with 2,500 new parking spaces, which will no doubt be a relief to shoppers who have been braving two years of construction.

RIP! It Got Modded! Silver State Hydraulic Elevator-The Delta King Dock-Sacramento, CA
Um, wow. This was unexpected. I haven't been back to film this elevator in quite some time, and the one day I decide to check up on it, I get slapped in the face with this! This elevator, although very rare, really needed a mod. It had horrible doors, ran very bad and bounced on the way up, and it just looked ugly and disgusting overall. This new elevator is a full replacement and it's very impressive! What do you guys think? Vote in the poll!

Sorry! There will be a drop in quality 1080p - 720p for the next couple weeks, I might as well just get these videos over with. CLASSIC BELL WARNING!
Vintage Montgomery Hydraulic Elevator @ Eurohaus Modern Furniture, Santana Row in San Jose CA
(5-22-2015) This is a really nice, completely original, vintage elevator. I appreciate the fact that there is no fan. I did not think about opening the phone box, but it may have saved me a hassle as when upanddownadventures opened it, the non ADA compliant phone simply fell out. Luckily this elevator is most likely reliable because the phone also did not work.
The last regular inspection permit on this elevator is from 2004! The latest temporary permit is July 2013.
FUN FACT -
upadndownadventures uploaded his video of this elevator exactly two years before the date of my upload.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
San Jose (; Spanish for 'Saint Joseph'; Spanish: [saŋ xoˈse]), officially the City of San José, is an economic, cultural and political center of Silicon Valley, and the largest city in Northern California (both in population and area). With an estimated 2017 population of 1,035,317, it is the third-most populous city in California (after Los Angeles and San Diego) and the tenth-most populous in United States. Located in the center of the Santa Clara Valley, on the southern shore of San Francisco Bay, San Jose covers an area of 179.97 square miles (466.1 km2). San Jose is the county seat of Santa Clara County, the most affluent county in California and one of the most affluent counties in the United States. San Jose is the most populous city in both the San Francisco Bay Area and the San Jose-San Francisco-Oakland Combined Statistical Area, which contain 7.7 million and 8.7 million people respectively.San Jose is a global city, notable as a center of innovation, for its affluence, Mediterranean climate, and extremely high cost of living. San Jose's location within the booming high tech industry, as a cultural, political, and economic center has earned the city the nickname Capital of Silicon Valley. San Jose is one of the wealthiest major cities in the United States and the world, and has the third highest GDP per capita in the world (after Zürich, Switzerland and Oslo, Norway), according to the Brookings Institution. The San Jose Metropolitan Area has the most millionaires and the most billionaires in the United States per capita. With a median home price of $1,085,000, San Jose has the most expensive housing market in the country and the fifth most expensive housing market in the world, according to the 2017 Demographia International Housing Affordability Survey. Major global tech companies including Cisco Systems, eBay, Adobe Systems, PayPal, Brocade, Samsung, Acer, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Western Digital maintain their headquarters in San Jose, in the center of Silicon Valley.
Before the arrival of the Spanish, the area around San Jose was inhabited by the Tamien nation of the Ohlone indigenous peoples of California. San Jose was founded on November 29, 1777, as the Pueblo de San José de Guadalupe, the first city founded in the Californias. It then became a part of Mexico in 1821 after the Mexican War of Independence. Following the American Conquest of California during the Mexican–American War, the territory was ceded to the United States in 1848. After California achieved statehood two years later, San Jose became the state's first capital. Following World War II, San Jose experienced an economic boom, with a rapid population growth and aggressive annexation of nearby cities and communities carried out in the 1950s and 1960s. The rapid growth of the high-technology and electronics industries further ...
