"Great View of SF bay. Hidden location to watch 7/4 fireworks."
Panoramic rim is a hidden jewel in Alameda. It sees traffic mainly during the fourth of july where the Alameda insiders gather to watch fireworks launched from Oakland's Jack London square across the narrow estuary. Ever since the naval base closure in 1997, this area, full of empty warehouses, has been abandoned. While the city has been talking with developers to put in a golf course and a wild life preservation area, there has not been any actions taken yet. As is, the street offers wonderful views of the bay bridge and SF bay. If you ever need a quiet place to escape to think, this would be it.
