Come join us for the annual Woody Walk

This year, the Woody Walk ventures into new territory. We leave the leafy lanes of the Gold Coast for the stage-set fantasies of Fernside Neighborhood, where we will wander through a historical theme park of California haciendas, Andalusian farmhouses, Tudor retreats, Colonial manses, and medieval manorettes.

Developed on the site of a 100-acre Victorian estate, Fernside was the Island City's biggest subdivision in the years between the two world wars--laid out in 1925 and mostly developed by 1941. There are also good examples to be found of Ranch House design from the 1930s to the 1950s, and a few fine Victorians on the fringes of the neighborhood to get us started. Come one, come all, and partake of yet another facet of the architectural jewel that is Alameda.
