Newark, CA has a lake that somebody had to dig. In 1965 a developer drew 18 acres of water on a plan, then spent $300,000 of its own money to dig it, because a house with water in front of it sells for more. #NewarkCA #EastBay

Newark, CA has a lake that somebody had to dig. In 1965 Transamerica spent $300,000 of its own money to make 18 acres of water out of flat ranch dirt, because they knew what a house with water in front of it sells for. youtube.com/shorts/QMSEx... #NewarkCA

Newark, CA had a private club on Rich Avenue: Newark Lodge 539, Loyal Order of Moose. Its income jumped from $64K to $400K+ in one year, then the state dissolved it. Where did the money come from? #NewarkCA #EastBay youtube.com/shorts/HVpF9...

Newark, CA had a Moose Lodge on Rich Avenue. After 55 years of quiet paperwork its income jumped 6x in one year, then the state dissolved it. Nobody on record says where the money came from. #NewarkCA #EastBay youtube.com/shorts/fxIEJ...

If you've parked in the Safeway lot on Jarvis in Newark, CA, you parked where Lido Lanes stood. Built with 1,300 tract homes in 1959, gone now, and nobody seems to have a photo of it. #NewarkCA #EastBay

For the first two weeks Newark, California was a city, its official address was a P.O. box, paid for with donated money. City business got done in Mayor George Silliman's kitchen.

Same commute. Same freeway. Six figures apart: ~$1.49M on the Ardenwood side vs ~$1.25M citywide in Newark (August listings). The houses aren't the difference. The story is. #NewarkCA #EastBay

Two houses. Same commute. One costs six figures more, and it isn't the house. Ardenwood (the farm is in Fremont, on the Newark line) vs Old Town Newark, where the city started in the 1870s. Buyers pay for the story. #NewarkCA #EastBay

There's a farm in Fremont with its own railroad station in the front yard. I jumped that fence in high school and found people in period dress - thought I'd found a time machine. Ardenwood Historic Farm: 205 acres, open to anyone. #NewarkCA #EastBay

George Washington came to Newark and built the largest ranch in the county. Not that George Washington. Patterson came west in 1849 for gold, failed, and by 1895 farmed 3,000 acres here, named after Shakespeare. Ardenwood Historic Farm, Fremont: 205 acres, still there. #NewarkCA #EastBay

Coyote Hills in Fremont, CA: a park sitting on a Cold War Nike missile base, with a mound holding nearly 500 burials underneath it. One of the only ones left on this Bay -- and Newark just approved 226 homes on that same shoreline. #EastBay #NewarkCA

A shellmound the size of a football field, ten feet tall, nearly 500 burials — the Ryan Mound at Coyote Hills. The Tuibun Ohlone lived here 2,000+ years before anyone said "Newark." Their Muwekma descendants still do. #NewarkCA #FremontCA #BayAreaHistory #CoyoteHills #OhloneHistory

For two weeks in 1955, Newark, California's official city hall was a P.O. box. No staff, no police department, a $69,000 budget — city business got done in the mayor's kitchen. Eleven years later: a real City Hall. Today: a $72.3M Civic Center. #Newark #EastBay #NewarkCA

Watkins Hall, Newark CA: a barbershop that ran liquor out the back all through Prohibition. Built 1895, raided 1929 and 1931, became the Knotty Pine Tavern. Still standing on Ash St. #NewarkCA #EastBayHistory
