Transportation projects
BART-West Pittsburg / Bay Point Station
Pittsburg, CA
This terminus station occupies a site in the median of a freeway. It provides intermodel connections, via an enclosed pedestrian bridge and entry pavilion, to bus transfer islands and a 2,000 car parking lot. The use of expansive glass block walls offers protection from the prevailing winds and fills the station with an abundance of natural light during the day. At night it provides a glowing, sculptural focal point for freeway travelers.
BART Balboa Park Station
San Francisco, CA
The Balboa Park BART Station is the fifth busiest station in the BART system and the busiest station outside downtown San Francisco. This expansion project increases fare collection and vertical circulation capacity with the addition and reconfiguration of gates, escalators and stairs. Design allows for significant improvements to emergency egress and the relocation of the existing BART Police Room.
VTA Capital Corridor
San Jose, CA
As part of the expansion of the VTA Light Rail into northeast San Jose, the Capitol Line extends the transit system 3.26 miles along the median of North Capital Avenue. FMG Architects provided architectural design and construction documents for the 5 surface stations constructed along the alignment. The design of these stations pays utmost attention to public safety and accessibility compliance, while improving the urban environment of the community and facilitating the needs of transit riders.
CalTrain Bayshore Station
South San Francisco, CA
CalTrain Bayshore Station is the gateway station to San Francisco in the north and the Peninsula to the south allowing for implementation of Baby Bullet service.

FMG Architects provided design documents for all ancillary buildings, ventilation structures, tunnel access and station emergency egress stairs for the eight mile extension of the rapid transit system from the existing Colma BART station a new intermodal station at Millbrae. In addition, the firm coordinated schedule, budget and engineering for 17 distinct conditions which occur in multiple jurisdictions throughout the project.
Trenton Light Rail Extension
Trenton, NJ
An innovative approach to transit system development; this is a continuation of the design, build, operate and maintain (DBOM) 33.8 mile light rail project into into downtown Trenton. This system also provides a vital link for commuter access to Philadelphia, Northern New Jersey and New York. As part of the architecture and engineering team, FMG developed and produced the “Urban Design Guidelines Handbook” for the project.

The Millbrae Intermodal Station is located at the intersection of Millbrae Avenue and Rollins Road, just off Highway 101, occupying 15 acres in a mixed-use area. The new CalTrain station features a central platform for transfer between the BART and CalTrain systems and a concourse-level bridge for patron circulation and supporting facilities. It has been designed to compliment the BART station yet has an identity of its own. The station provides access to SamTrans buses and a passenger drop-off area.
AC Transit Hydrogen Refueling Facility
Oakland, CA
As project architect, FMG designed modifications to AC Transit's existing maintenance facility in Oakland to accommodate the addition of eight hydrogen fuel cell buses to the existing fleet. Work included changes to the maintenance bays and the site.
