Neighborhood

Adams Point is a family-friendly locale that maintains an urban flair and embodies the eclectic vibe Oakland is known for. The neighborhood features a unique collection of rental options ranging from Art Deco apartments to craftsman and Edwardian houses. Vibrant murals and some of “Oakland’s Gnomes,” anonymously painted garden gnomes on wooden planks on the bottom of utility poles, are sprinkled across the neighborhood. Along with access to excellent schools, Adams Point is best known for being home to Oakland’s crown jewel, Lake Merritt. The lake provides residents with over three miles of continuous waterfront parks and green spaces. Lakeside Park houses Children’s Fairyland, a fairytale themed amusement park with rides and a puppet show. The Pergola is one of the city’s cultural spaces hosting everything from drum circles to yoga sessions. Residents can also be seen on paddleboats and Venetian gondolas gliding across the lake or visiting farmers markets.
