Get Directions
The Bay Area island of Alameda may be small, but its downtown area is packed with the amenities and character you’d expect of a bigger city. Downtown Alameda is located on the island’s east side and provides views of the Oakland hills and nature preserves, as well as the beautiful bay.
Spanish-style houses and apartments are packed in the downtown island landscape, providing colorful setting for families and professionals alike. Locals flock to Park St. for an incredible array of restaurants, shops, and attractions, including the Alameda Museum and Red Door art gallery.
Although all of Alameda is easy to reach, Downtown Alameda is an ideal spot for experiencing the rest of the city, and the Bay Area as a whole. Alameda also has excellent service thanks to BART.
