As the first internationally-themed lifestyle center in the United States, The Globe will serve as the premier retail and entertainment destination in the Bay Area. It will not only attract visitors and acclaim regionally but also from across the nation and around the world. The concept of the Globe is to create an environment that is inclusive of the different cultures of the world and to express them through the design of the architecture as well as the types of products and services offered. The Globe will be a place where the commonalities of cultures are highlighted and differences appreciated; food and fashion being two prime facets. The Globe will target the middle to upper income echelons as its primary target market. The tenant composition will also be vital.

Location Description:
Will be situated at the E-Building (European Village) across from the Heart area and in the center of the Globe Mall.

Located in Fremont, California, the site area covers 47.24 acres or over 2 million sq. ft. with over 700,000 sq. ft. of gross leasable area (GLA) planned. The Globe is located in Silicon Valley adjacent to and west of the 880 Freeway south of Stevenson Blvd. The 880 Freeway extends along the East Bay from San Jose to Oakland connecting to these other high-volume freeways and highways - 101, 280, 580, 80, 92, 84, 8 and 237 - and running through the following cities - Los Gatos, Campbell, Santa Clara, San Jose, Milpitas, Fremont, Newark, Hayward, Union City, San Leandro, Alameda, and Oakland. The Globe's convenient location near the Dumbarton Bridge (84) will allow for easy access from cities across the San Francisco bay such as Palo Alto, Foster City, Belmont, San Carlos, Redwood City, Menlo Park, Woodside, Mountain View, and Los Altos Hills. The City of Fremont is currently the last stop in the South Bay for BART and the Globe plans to Serve the public transit commuters with its own customized BART shuttle, whose schedule will be coordinated with the BART system.

Planning Commission Meetings 01/12/06 SAIGON VILLAGE ARCHITECTURE

What types of businesses, other than restaurants, were anticipated to locate within
the Village?
Fashion retailers would be located along Fashion Boulevard within the project. It was
hoped that some retailers would reflect the cultures expressed in the architecture,
which would cater to the local market. A cinema was envisioned that would show
independent foreign films, rather than the “usual blockbuster films.”

Were there any plans for office-type businesses?
Most would be retail. The only office spaces would be used by the Village
management company and his firm.

Would there be any other types of office businesses?
No more than a total of 5,000 square feet, if any.

Would office space be allowed in this area?
Associate Planner Ruhland replied that this parcel was already zoned for High
Volume Retail and Commercial. The General Plan amendment would change the
land behind this parcel from General Industrial to High Volume Retail and typical
office use was not anticipated within High Volume Retail. Some service businesses,
i.e., real estate, banks, accounting would be allowed.

Was an eating establishment previously approved for this site?
Associate Planner Ruhland replied that there was no specific use identified in the
previous design of the building.

Were quite a few eating establishments planned?
As many as four different restaurants were being considered.

Did the applicant know of any actual businesses that were planning to occupy the
buildings? No leases had been signed, but there was a waiting list of interested restaurants.

Was this particular project near the sign that stated an Asian buffet was coming?
Yes, but it would be on a different parcel, altogether.

Would East-West Bank actually be located on the smaller pad, or was that shown for
the purposes of illustration?
Discussion had been held with East-West Bank, along with other banks.

Was the Golden Theater one and the same that was referenced as the performing
arts stage?
No. However, it was hoped that the theater would be used as a multifunctional
performing stage, as well.
Mr. Horn clarified that the performing venue that she was referring to would be an
outdoor performing plaza in the public space area.

Would parking be adequate, as other local Asian shopping centers seemed to lack
enough space.
All parking requirements would be met and they were working with their consultants
and Associate Planner Ruhland to make sure adequate parking would be available.

Planning Commission Meetings 01/26/06 The Globe
Where might the parking structure be located, if deemed necessary, and how many
stories would it be?
The parking structure would be located at the upper rear portion of the site between
the buildings and Encyclopedia Circle. At this time, it was anticipated that two stories

Where might the parking structure be located, if deemed necessary, and how many
stories would it be?
The parking structure would be located at the upper rear portion of the site between
the buildings and Encyclopedia Circle. At this time, it was anticipated that two stories
would be adequate.

How would these separate types of businesses contribute to ethnic integration?
Would only the Vietnamese, for instance, visit only the Vietnamese shops and
restaurants?
It was hoped that the entire community (regardless of nationality or race) would be
interested in going to the center to shop and eat.

How many restaurants were anticipated to locate in this center?
Approximately 20 to 25 different kinds of restaurants. Some would be freestanding
pads, some could be smaller. Restaurants that were expected to locate in this center
were: Jackie’s Kitchen (from Honolulu), Anamadera (a high-end Vietnamese
restaurant), Indian Chi Café (a small facility), Vietnam Dim Sum, International
Culinary Arts, Roy’s, Straits Café (currently in Santana Row) and Amber’s (an Indian
restaurant also in Santana Row). In conversations with many community leaders and
consulates, they seemed very supportive of this concept.

Was it anticipated that the same number of shops would be located in the center?
They expected an international market and a Chinese market would open business in
the center. It was hoped that boutiques that would sell, for example, wedding
dresses from another country, thus, eliminating a trip by the bride to her home
country to chose an appropriate dress. Rather than these kinds of businesses being
located in the typical “older shopping center,” they would have a location that was a
part of the culture of Fremont.

Was the applicant talking with individuals with the various ethnic backgrounds that
were to be represented in this project?
Yes, they were.

Would the shops be upscale and, for example, sell artifacts indigenous to a particular
country? What kinds of shops were expected to locate in the project?
Fred Kim stated that they expected to create a project that was fiscally sound. Each
cultural district would be customized to cater to the demographics of the city. Retail
demand was expected to be from middle to upper middle household incomes within
the city. They hoped to create a project that would reach out to all cultures.
Architectural inspiration had been taken from the source cultures, and they were
modified and contemporized for each building. Everyone they had spoken with
“loved, loved the idea.”

Eugene Sum, Sum Architects, added that he and the applicant were “trying to create a fusion
of elements from different cultures. They planned to look at new ways of looking at cultural
elements from different countries and to collage it in a way that would create “inclusionary
principles into the design.” This architecture would be specific to Fremont, specific to
California and, at the same time, it would respect those elements that come
would be adequate.
