  • nice park.
  • This is where houses were removed when the BART tunnel was installed in the 1960s.
  • its also a result of community activism. bart was going to develop the land for profit, but succumbed to protesters and campers who demanded the land be made into a park. initially, it was called the People's Park Annex.
