2012 Map of Oakland West

About this map

Oakland and Berkeley waterfronts are revealed in meticulous detail, illustrating the dense industrial and institutional fabric of the East Bay. The map documents the extensive port facilities of the Oakland Outer Harbor and Oakland Inner Harbor, including the Oakland Mole and various maritime terminals like the Sea-Land Terminal. The transition from industrial piers to residential enclaves is clear, with neighborhoods such as Chinatown, Adams Point, and Pill Hill appearing alongside educational centers like the University of California at Berkeley. The structural layout of the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge serves as a central artery, connecting the mainland to Yerba Buena Island and Treasure Island. Significant landmarks like Jack London Square and the Yerba Buena Lighthouse provide points of interest for researchers studying the coastal evolution and urban development of this maritime hub.
