Minor will talk about some of the historical building in the Civic Center including City Hall which opened in 1895 and whose architects were Percy & Hamilton.  The Carnegie Library was built in 1902 . The Carnegie Library was built in 1902 and designed by Willcox & Curtis

 

Architect and author Pierluigi Serraino will offer the modernist perspective to Woody’s historical discussion when he talks about the 10 years old Main Library.  The modern main library was designed by Thomas Hacker.


Alameda is a wonderful island community, with its tree lined streets, friendly neighborhoods, great schools and lovely architecture.  I write about interesting and fun things to do in Alameda and issue affecting  Alamedans in my Living in Alameda blog.  If you would like more information about Alameda please visit my Facebook page  Living in Alameda.

Evelyn Kennedy - What a beautiful building!  I'd love to learn the history of it and find out why the clock tower has disappeared over time!  Should be a great presentation!
