- Kourtney PJuly 3, 2012This BART stop is literally a one minute walk to Third Workplace, a cool ground level workplace with WiFi, coffee, open space to work, and private rooms. Just head toward Treat Blvd.Upvote6Downvote

Hard to park on weekdays if u miss rush hourUpvote2Downvote
Beautiful station this station is a nation wide example of how mixed use transit space can work so well. Bikes, bart, shops, buses and apartments it's all here.Upvote2Downvote
Get the Clipper card, it makes things easier. Then hook it up to EZ rider parking so you can pay for parking with your card and you won't have to remember your parking #.Upvote5Downvote- Ever since it became the contra costa centre it's been getting all kinds of face lifts. A clock, earth quake safety construction, bike parking lot, shops. The Avalon &CCC pump money into the stationUpvoteDownvote
If you're going to the city in the am, be sure to time it right or you'll be standing for quite some time. Montgomery tends to be the best option.UpvoteDownvote
If you don't park by 7:30 or 8, wait till after 10 am because spots on the 1st and 2nd levels are open to all after 10. Enjoy sleeping in :)Upvote1Downvote
Island BruinMay 26, 2019No signs from the parking garage to the station. If you take the elevator, press G and pray.UpvoteDownvote- There's more parking space in the basement of the structure for after rush hours.UpvoteDownvote
511CCFebruary 23, 2011The new Robert I. Schroder bike/ped bridge on the Iron Horse Trail is just a block from the station and looks really cool lit up at night.Upvote2Downvote
Tired of forgetting your parking slot number? Take a picture of it or write it in a note on your phone, save paper.Upvote2Downvote
Brian DiceJuly 5, 2012Third Workplace is only 3 minute walk! Got an hour of work done, (including printing and faxing) plus hot tea - less than $4!Upvote1Downvote
Scott HainesOctober 21, 2010Parking on the first and second floors is for monthly pass holders only. You will get a nice little $50 reminder of that. Park up on the 3rdUpvote1Downvote
- Get a Clipper Card if you plan on using public transportation in the area.UpvoteDownvote
Watch out for drivers -- they speed going up and down the parking lot, they don't stop, and inconsiderate twds pedestrians!!Upvote2Downvote
There's a coffee/snack shop open M-F with pretty decent coffee, donuts, pizza and other refrigerated snacks.UpvoteDownvote
Going to SF during rush hour? Wait for Montgomery or Daily City train - those are less crowded than SFO train.UpvoteDownvote- 511CCApril 26, 2011Headed to Danville, San Ramon or Alamo? The Wheels 70 route connects to this station. Going north to Benicia, Fairfield or Vacaville? Solano Express route 40 will get you there from here.UpvoteDownvote
Dana YatesApril 19, 2012Even if the garage says full, try the roof. There may be some spots left.UpvoteDownvote
Park by 8:00 at the absolute latest - the parking fills up fast!UpvoteDownvote
TrucyJanuary 31, 2011Make sure to check out the Robert I. Schroder bike/ped steel bridge overcrossing over Treat Blvd.UpvoteDownvote
It’s a bart station that’s probably cleaner than civic center. But also still disgusting.UpvoteDownvote
Big beehive in the oak tree at the end of Platform 2, towards SF.UpvoteDownvote- Spare the Air at www.sparetheair.orgOctober 24, 2012Let's here it for the GIANTS! BART plans longer trains to carry fans to World Series... read more at www.bart.gov.Upvote1Downvote
Kelsey GoodwinAugust 7, 2011There is an outlet on the platform if you need to charge your cell phone or laptopUpvoteDownvote
Jac MadsenNovember 16, 2010If your allergic to bees, avoid the front of the train. The large oak at that end of the platform has an active hive.Upvote1Downvote

Mike MawhorterAugust 17, 2011Leaving later to miss rush hour? Good idea. Arriving at BART after 99% of parking spots are taken? Bad idea.Upvote2Downvote
