Neighborhood
The residential Lakeshore-Upper Grand neighborhood, cultivated by famed landscape architects Olmsted Brothers, is a sculpted terrain of winding streets following the natural contours of the land. Homes date back to the 1920s and ‘30s, some designed by notable Bay Area architects like Julia Morgan, Maybeck & White, and Charles McCall. Today, the neighborhood retains its period flavor, with large, romantic homes in the Italian Renaissance, Tudor, Spanish, Monterey, French provincial, and Colonial styles.
The Grand Avenue-Lakeshore neighborhood is one of Oakland’s most popular destinations. Whether you are looking for a hearty breakfast, a mid-day espresso, or a late night drink, you’ll find whatever your heart desires nearby. Great shopping and dining are all close-by. Head-out to the Saturday Farmer’s Market, a matinee at the Grand-Lake Theatre, or an outing at picturesque Lake Merritt. Easy commuter location: Hwy 580 and convenient transit connections to BART nearby. Walkscore of 99!
