Excerpt from A Plan for Civic Improvement for the City of Oakland, California In approach to Oakland from the bay, one sees a city stretching far along the waterfront and back over the ¿at plain, until the houses begin to climb the foothills. These, lying in rolling terraces beyond, promise views of rare majesty and beauty. The air at every season is soft and mild, the skies are blue, even often when fog hides the bay's other shore and the homes are separate houses, embowered in roses and wisteria and rising from gardens of lilies. What a place tilla appears, naturally and sociologically, for parks! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
