The Fruitvale BART station is located on 35th Ave, right near Fruitvale Village. As the fourth-busiest BART station in the East Bay, Fruitvale is fundamental in connecting the residents of the Sausal Creek watershed (especially those on the eastern portion of the creek) with the rest of the Bay. This particular BART station is also part of the Fruitvale Village, one of the most successful transit-oriented developments in the world. It has been serving the Fruitvale area since the early 1970s and is a cornerstone of the surrounding community. The 2013 movie Fruitvale Station is a biographical drama detailing the final hours of Oscar Grant III's life prior to a BART police officer killing him at the BART station. Director Ryan Coogler — who directed films such as Black Panther and Creed — shot several of the movie's scenes within the station.
