Any #OaklandHistory experts here? The other day we went to #Homeroom (the Mac&Cheese place, which happens to be exactly on the site of the #SacramentoNorthern electric railway's long-ago terminal), and I was browsing around the neighborhood later via GMaps satellite view, and I noticed this curve that seems to show that homes were built over some former road, or railway, or maybe filled-in creek? But I can't find any record of such a thing. Here's a link to a USGS historical topo map viewer: https://arcg.is/WXran ; As reminiscent as this is of covered-over RR right-of-ways elsewhere (like the old line through the Mission & Noe Valley in SF) there's no sign that this was every a railway as far back as a map from 1899. Maybe it's just the route of a really, really old country road? #OaklandCA #Oakland
