Currently, the riverfront area called the Bridge District is rapidly developing. At full build out, there will be 4,000 residential housing units in this area along with offices and retail. Sutter Health Park, home of the River Cats, the AAA affiliate of the San Francisco Giants, anchors the area. Plans are underway for a streetcar line that will connect the city’s core with the Bridge District and state capital Sacramento. Southport Westbridge Plaza is located in the Southport neighborhood of West Sacramento, a ±7,120-acre area located in the southern half of the City. It is bounded by the Sacramento Deep Water Ship Channel to the north and west, the Sacramento River to the east and the City limits to the south, just south of Burrows Avenue. The Southport area originally consisted of rural homesteads and small neighborhoods in Arlington Oaks and Linden, but now has a considerable population that resulted from housing booms in the early 1990s and the early 2000s, adding new reasonably affluent neighborhoods in Bridgeway, Gateway, River Ranch, and Newport. Just a mile west on Southport Parkway is the Southport Industrial Park, a 640—acre industrial/business park that has about 8.6 million square feet of building area among 49 buildings. There are currently four buildings under construction totaling ±678,000 square feet. Amazon recently constructed two buildings in Southport Industrial Park totaling ±343,000 square feet and other institutional and notable tenants in the park include General Electric, HD Supply, NorCal Beverage, Nippon Shokken USA, Core-Mark International, Veritiv, DBI Beverage and others.
