I was passing through Jack London Square the other day, that's a waterfront development in downtown Oakland. Very attractive views of the Middle Harbor, San Francisco, the giant cargo cranes that were the inspiration for Imperial Walkers in the Star Wars movies, and the historic boat Potomac. And they have a ferry landing for visits to the others sides of the San Francisco Bay.
A crew was working on the decorations for the huge Christmas tree. They do this each year.
The palm trees weren't here when I last visited Jack London Square. Quite tall, they are as high as the ones at the University of California-Berkeley.
And a final look at the scene.
