Parks & Nature

I can't imagine living here without having Tilden Park almost in our backyard! Taking the easy hike at Inspiration Point on Sunday mornings is one of our regulars. Best views in Berkeley; makes me glad to live in the East Bay!

Getting Around

The Transbay bus picks up within a block and a half of our house. It's a safe, peaceful, and clean ride into SF. Much prefer it to BART.

The Transbay bus picks up at stops along Colusa Ave. The nearest spot to our home is at Lynn. Board the G bus for a peaceful, uncrowded ride to San Francisco.
