Join Bob Johnson for a walk through the historic Elmwood district of Berkeley, with a vibrant commercial district, impressive architecture, tree-lined streets, bits of history and homes of some (surprisingly) famous people. The walk is over flat terrain with numerous stops,  including a noontime stop for lunch. Parking is available in the area and it is served by AC Transit buses. Bring lunch, water, and wear comfortable shoes.

The event is free; for more details and to reserve a spot go to the website of Greenbelt Alliance: https://www.greenbelt.org/events/berkeleys-historic-elmwood-district/

As part of the Berkeley Historical Society autumn walk series, join Bob Johnson to explore the quieter side of the UC campus. This walk features great architecture, former homes of famous people, the Graduate Theological Union, the history of Berkeley's devastating 1923 fire, and tree-lined streets, some of which should be showing fall colors. The walk is a little over 2 miles and includes a few steep uphill sections. Option to grab a bite to eat in the intimate Euclid commercial district afterward. Please go to the Berkeley Historical Society website to register and pay a modest fee: http://www.berkeleyhistoricalsociety.org/Walks.html
