LOCATION: We call it Central Station for good reason: Oakland’s newest community is centrally situated for work, shopping, entertainment, and travel. The Bay Bridge and all major freeways are a few minutes from your front door. So is BART. Amtrak and ferry connections are just as easy. ACTIVITIES? Take your pick. Central Station is the hub of a vibrant shopping and entertainment corridor that stretches from Gilman Street in Berkeley to Jack London Square on the Oakland waterfront. Art galleries and jazz clubs, boutiques and shopping centers, movies and symphony are all within easy reach. Central Station: at the center of everything you like best about Bay Area life. Explore the best of Oakland!
