Information

On the overpass above 52nd street, you'll see "Temescal Flows", a mural that highlights the waveforms of the creek and serves as a colorful entry monument to the neighborhood. Completed in 2012 by artist Alan Leon, this project was funded by the East Bay Community Foundation. The wavy lines are indicative not only of the creek that once flowed freely through this neighborhood, but also indigenous culture, children, and healing.
