San Jose, CA On September 19, 2021 Underwood and Rosenblum (U&R) volunteered to "Adopt an Intersection" in the Viva CalleSJ "Open Streets" community event. U&R was stationed at the intersection of 10th Street and E. Santa Clara Street, helping to manage event traffic and maintain pedestrian safety throughout the Viva CalleSJ event.

U&R transformed the intersection with a Selfie Station, music, giveaways, and a giant balloon arch over Santa Clara Street. The firm also led a community engagement activity to help gain individual feedback on the impact and benefit of programs such as Viva CalleSJ.

Frank Rosenblum, U&R President, stated, "U&R is proud to promote open streets, active lifestyles, and connecting communities as a Viva CalleSJ volunteer. As a civil engineering and surveying firm focused on projects such as schools, community spaces, churches, and safe routes to school, Viva CalleSJ is a natural fit to volunteer our time. We have long been a supporter of many local organizations and programs; San Jose is our home and the U&R mission is to provide a positive atmosphere to encourage growth and well-being."

Thousands participated in Sunday's Viva CalleSJ event promoting community and outdoor fun, and experiencing San Jose in a new way.
