Mosswood Park is an 11acre public park in Oakland, California, located on W MacArthur Boulevard between Webster Street and Broadway. The address is 3612 Webster St. It is managed by the city's Department of Parks and Recreation. It contains a community recreation center as well as extensive grassy lawns, picnic areas, children's play equipment, dog runs, tennis and basketball courts, and baseball fields.Programs at the park include after-school tutoring for grades K-7, along with numerous other after-school classes.Mosswood Park is situated on the former estate of J. Mora Moss, who built a Carpenter Gothic style mansion there in 1864. After he married Julia Wood, he combined their two surnames to name it Mosswood. The mansion, an Oakland Heritage Landmark, still stands but is in poor repair and is used for office and storage space by the Park and Recreation Department.The city purchased a portion of the estate, including the house, in 1907 for use as a park. Over the years the park was augmented with two amphitheaters and a decorative pergola. During the 1950s there were children's plays in one of the amphitheaters every week, put on by the Mosswood Children's Theatre Teen Troupe. However, that amphitheater was demolished in the 1960s when Interstate 580 was built and an on-ramp was constructed through that part of the park.The neighborhood around Mosswood Park is called Mosswood. The neighborhood goes from the Grove Shafter Freeway to the West to Broadway Street to the East. The border to the North is 40th Street and to the South the border is the MacArthur Freeway. MacArthur Blvd. runs right through the Mosswood neighborhood.The park was used in NBA Street Vol. 2.

The Pardee Home is a house in Oakland, California that was home to three generations of the Pardee family. It is now a non-profit museum, showing over 100 years of the life of a prominent California family. The house, a well-preserved example of Italianate architecture, is a city landmark, a California Historical Landmark, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.The house was constructed in 1868 by California State Senator Enoch H. Pardee. His son, George Pardee, a Governor of California, also inhabited the house, inheriting it after his father's death. After George's death in 1941, it passed on to his two daughters, Madeline and Helen (the same name as her mother), who lived in the house until their deaths in 1980 and 1981 respectively.The interior of the house is the main attraction of the museum. George's wife Helen collected knick-knacks from all over the world, including scrimshaw from Alaska, tobacco pipes from the Philippines, and a giant elk head. She was fond of giving house tours to show off her collection. All of the furnishings are original and the house looks as it did in 1981.
Located in Oakland, California, the Cathedral Building, originally named the Federal Realty Building, was the first Gothic Revival style skyscraper west of the Mississippi River. It is also called the "Wedding Cake" for its appearance, which resembles New York's Flatiron Building. Its narrow, triangular form is a result of its location on Latham Square, where Telegraph Avenue branches off diagonally from Broadway. It was built by architect Benjamin Geer McDougall, who designed the steel framed building. The building has been placed on the National Register of Historic Places. It was developed by Brog Properties, a Downtown Oakland development firm who renovated the building for mixed residential and commercial units. The historic building houses prominent architectural and engineering firms JRDV Architects and TJC and Associates, Inc. as well as Carrington Orthodontic Center. In June 2015, the United Nations Foundation commissioned Bay Area street artist Zio Ziegler to create a mural on the Cathedral Building's north-facing wall. The mural commemorates the signing of the United Nations Charter in San Francisco, California on June 26, 1945.

Sanchez Contemporary was born out of our love for the arts and artists. Our goal is to support the many Bay Area Chican@/Latin@ artists and offer a space where they can exhibit their art in a gallery setting and share their talent and creativity with the community. Art is legacy, it's what remains after we leave this earth. Art tells stories ... we see ourselves reflected in it. In it you find our beliefs, history, familia, convictions and our everyday lives. The gallery offers a beautiful space for the arts, music and poetry while also enjoying a great cup of cafecito in our adjacent cafe Tertulia Coffee. We are also collectors of art and want to share our passion for collecting with others, by offering workshops on collecting art, painting workshops, art therapy, artist panels and conversations. Investing in and educating our youth is also high on our priority list, therefore we will be supporting local university students with educational scholarships – (a portion of gallery sales will be applied to establishing a scholarship fund). Tim and Maria Sanchez Tertulia Coffee & Sanchez Contemporary For information please email us at : [email protected] We are located at 1951 Telegraph Ave. at the corner of 20th and Telegraph in Oakland, CA.
