Vieira Park Outlook

Vieira Park Outlook is a public park located in San Jose, California, situated atop Communications Hill. The park offers visitors panoramic views of the Santa Clara Valley and Santa Cruz Mountains, making it an ideal spot for sightseeing and photography enthusiasts.

The park's history is closely tied to the Vieira family, a prominent Portuguese-American family of Azorean origin who owned land on Communications Hill since 1896. Vieira Park was laid out and dedicated in 2004 as part of a development agreement between the Vieira family and KB Home for the upper acreage of their ranch.

Vieira Park Outlook serves as a testament to the area's transformation from agricultural land to urban development. The park commemorates four generations of the Vieira family's life, spanning from ranching and working in canneries to involvement in construction and the high-tech industry, reflecting the evolving economic landscape of the Santa Clara Valley.

The park's location on Communications Hill provides visitors with a unique vantage point to observe the surrounding urban and natural landscapes. It serves as a tranquil space for local residents and visitors to enjoy outdoor activities while appreciating the rich history and scenic beauty of the area.
