Golden Gate is a neighborhood that straddles San Pablo Avenue, bordered by Berkeley to the north, Emeryville to the west and south, and the Gaskill, Paradise Park neighborhoods to the east, although some people consider Gaskill and Paradise Park as part of Golden Gate due to the lack of community associations. The neighborhood in 1888 for its views of the Golden Gate (the entrance to the bay now spanned by the Golden Gate Bridge and obscured from view by development)

 

 

The neighborhood has a large number of arts, entertainment, and community resources, including Actual Cafe,  The Compound GalleryPLACE for Sustainable Living, Victory Burger, A Verb for Keeping Warm, and a Carnegie library.

Golden Gate is home to a branch library and a recreation center.

See the Golden Gate Community Alliance website and English Wikipedia article about the neighborhood.

People in the neighborhood are encouraged to join our neighborhood social network and come to neighborhood meetings, e.g, for NCPC-10x.
