East Bay Gateway Regional Shoreline
A Park in Development
 Located
at the foot of the new east span of the Bay Bridge on former Oakland
Army Base land, this shoreline park is being planned by the East Bay
Regional Park District as a green gateway to the east bay. Featuring
spectacular shoreline views of San Francisco, the park will be the
jumping-off point for the Bay Trail to join the bike path on the new
bridge, crossing to Treasure Island. The park site is also the location
where the east bay’s historic Key System trolley line met the San
Francisco ferries to cross the bay. A new museum is envisioned to
commemorate this transportation node, including the history of the old
and new Bay Bridges.
