Parking lot at San Leandro BART, with the OSIsoft building on the San Leandro Tech Campus across the street

The San Leandro Tech Campus is a business park being constructed by Westlake Development Partners LLC in downtown San Leandro, California, near the San Leandro BART station. Construction of Phase 1 of the project began in 2014, and was completed in 2016.[1] The primary tenant of the first phase of construction is OSIsoft, a software company based in San Leandro.[2] Phase 2 of the project is expected to be completed in 2019 with Ghirardelli Chocolate Company as the lead tenant.[3]

The site is the permanent location for the sculpture Truth is Beauty by Marco Cochrane. The sculpture generated some controversy, as it is a large (55 ft (17 m) tall) nude outdoor sculpture, albeit on private property.[4][5][6]
