Downtown Berkeley Photo Walking Tour Route
Join Keoki Seu and me on Saturday 13 Nov 2010 morning for a Downtown Berkeley Photo Walk
We’ll gather at Amanda’s 2122 Shattuck at Center (northernmost coffee cup on the map) at 11:00 am, then start walking about 15 – 20 minutes later. Amanda West was honored with the designation “Woman Entrepreneur of the Year in Berkeley”
The Town part of the tour will end by the southernmost coffee cup – near Gather Restaurant in the Brower Center at 2200 Oxford Street. Berkeleyside.com wrote about Ari Derfel and Eric Fenster and the chef Sean Baker named 2010 Chef of The Year. Gather is across the street from Saturn Cafe at 2175 Allston Way.
At the end of the Town tour, Keoki Seu may lead the Gown part of the tour to UC Berkeley and Telegraph Avenue
