Turn-of-the-century landmarks alongside modern high-rises are the focus of this tour. Explore the upbeat style of the modern City Center Square and discover a thriving “there” there. Examine symbols of Oakland’s arrival as a modern 20th century metropolis: the Beaux Arts-style City hall and Rotunda Building, the Tribune Tower, and the Art Deco-style Financial Center building.
Due to Alameda County’s Shelter-In-Place Order, the Walking Tours are currently suspended. We are monitoring the Orders and will update this web page when the Walking Tours are allowed to resume.
Tour begins at 10:00 a.m. in front of Oakland City Hall, One Frank H. Ogawa Plaza.
