Podcast Tour Oakland: Fruitvale - The Village They Built
Podcast Tour Oakland: Fruitvale - The Village They Built
The Experience
Beneath Oakland's roaring elevated tracks sits Fruitvale Transit Village, a neighborhood designed not by remote bureaucrats, but by residents who refused to be paved over. In 1991, the transit agency planned a massive concrete commuter garage that would have cut Fruitvale in half. Instead, organizers seized the land to build an ecosystem of public health, bilingual learning, housing, and family enterprise. Walk alongside planner Tom and local insider Lucia to experience the battles, heartbreaks, and hard-won victories behind one of the world's most studied community-led developments.
