Description

This large-scale overview view of Oakland’s Central Business District was designed by SWA Group, a landscape architecture firm, and published by the Office of Economic Development and Employment in 1983. Notable buildings are outlined, illustrated, and labeled block by block, with a particular emphasis on the accompanying greenery and tree-lined streets.

The map was likely issued as part of ongoing civic efforts to beautify the city, as it was plagued by economic decline and high crime rates in the early 1980s.
