  • Mayor John Bauters kicks off the celebration of the completion of the latest extension of the Emeryville Greenway*–the green tranquil heart of  this 1.2 sq mi city
  • Brunch treats provided by The Broken Rack and Honor Bar
  • Bay Area Artist Joey Rose, presents his Mural commemorating the local ecology with a bit of whimsy
  • Chance to win a gift certificate for an Emeryvillle “Night Out” and other prizes.
  • Free seeds to spread throughout Emeryville.

“The City of Emeryville has been a regional leader in converting spaces with old or outdated uses into active transit and social spaces,” continues Bauters. “The opening of Peladeau Park represents the city’s latest accomplishment in the completion of that vision.”

* This extension was made possible by California Parks & Recreation and the US Environmental Protection Agency.  The next section is behind Grifols.
