While other cities are planning new housing complexes, Concord is planning for a whole new city.

If all goes according to plan, the vast expanse of the old Concord Naval Weapons Station will someday be 12,000 new homes, a development about the size of the neighboring community of Pleasant Hill.

"And for the first time, we have an agreement between the city, our master developer, and the Navy, over how much we're going to pay the Navy for the 2,400 acres we're going to develop on the former Concord Naval Weapons Station," said base reuse director Guy Bjerke.
