this great example of contemporary shellmound building is also testament to how #landback could eventually free us all. #landback and #reparation go hand in hand

Yes they are. Road diets & protected bikeway projects are in the works for Doyle, 40th St, Shellmound, San Pablo Ave, Christie, Adeline, Powell, and others.
It’s okay to chide cities that just drop speed limits & call it a day. Emeryville isn’t one of those cities.

Also Shellmound/Christie & Powell/Christie in Emeryville. The former is very nearly a pedestrian scramble but the city refuses to finalize it.

Looks like City of Emeryville is adding concrete curb protection to the bike lanes on Shellmound between 63rd and 65th and they had to remove some parking to do so. The world will undoubtedly come to an end.
Seriously, when it comes to safe streets, Emeryville is punching way above their weight.

New concrete-protected bike lanes on Shellmound St. in Emeryville. Looking good and much safer than a stripe of white paint.

Emeryville also just installed a bunch of new red curb to improve visibility at intersections/crosswalks on Vallejo St, Hollis & Shellmound, in some cases going beyond the 20’ state law daylighting requirement.

With $54M, Sogorea Te' has big dreams for its reclaimed West Berkeley shellmound site. Its popular shuumi land tax has its Ohlone critics.

til Emeryville, a small Bay Area city best known as Pixar HQ, was the site of an Ohlone village and burial ground.
White people built a dance hall & amusement park on the shellmound, which was demolished for a paint factory. Now there's a big mall and a small memorial. The bones are still there.

Still have to bike through the crappy Powell Street underpass to get to the Bay Trail though. Hopefully the new Ashby interchange bike/walk bridge over I-80 will start construction by the end of next year, connecting to Shellmound.
