Neighborhood

Hoover-Foster, known colloquially to residents as "Ghost Town," features a blend of community activism and a growing art scene. Art galleries and music studios line San Pablo Avenue while the Martin Luther King Jr. Cultural Corridor hosts some of the neighborhood’s vibrant murals. Hoover-Foster’s strong sense of community is reflected in spaces like the California Hotel. This historic hotel was a popular spot for jazz and blues legends like Billie Holliday and has transformed into a multi-use building for housing, live performances, and youth education programs. Locals also bond at special events like the West Oakland Grown Harvest Festival, an annual event celebrating healthy food. This diverse neighborhood is home to restaurants from every cuisine, but residents also appreciate Hoover-Foster’s proximity to Uptown’s trendy eateries and nightlife spots.

Hoover-Foster blends the old and new with a variety of architectural styles.
