Shoreline Park will engage the Estuary and heighten the opportunity
for viewing and enjoying its diversity of activities
The Estuary contributes significantly to Oaklands civic identity,
creating continuity from the airport to the port and along the
bay and into Lake Merritt. It provides an intimate stage of water
activity, offering unique views to passing vessels and a direct
connection to the opposite shore. The scale, beauty and everchanging spectacle of the Estuary demand a restrained design
approach that reveals its intrinsic qualities and builds upon the
power of its setting. Rather than compete with the waterfront

The central plaza will become a civic gathering place that recalls its
maritime heritage and creates opportunities for a variety of activities
The design for Shoreline Park builds upon the nature of the pilesupported structure that underlies the central plaza and expresses
its maritime heritage. It is intended to express its authentic
identity as a deck over water rather than be treated as if part of
land and it builds upon the maritime role of the Ninth Avenue
terminal building.
The design references the building scale and form and incorporates

variety that foster activity and reinforce the sense of place. Rather
than being filled up with specific facilities, the park is intentionally
designed to be more flexible and adaptable for a variety of activities and experiences that can change over time. Programming
will be organized such activities as childrens play, education and
discovery tours, yoga, fishing, twilight dancing and concerts, weekend markets, community dining, and gathering for races and other
events on the Estuary. Staffing of the park will further a sense of
security and safety until it becomes a self-sustaining space.

Lighting will provide continuity to the park, unify the shoreline and
create an attractive and sustainable night-time environment
Lighting is carefully conceived to reinforce the relationship of the
park to its most significant features and make them as evident
at night-time as they are during the day. Lighting will be focused
