About the Willard Park Blog

The Willard Park Blog is a place to post information about life in the neighborhoods just south of the university in Berkeley. The blog takes its name from Willard Park at the corner of Derby and Hillegass, halfway between the Elmwood and Telegraph shopping districts. I plan to post neighborhood news, photos, and information about local events, organizations, and history. One day it could be a blurb about a concert at People's Park or a 20 page scholarly article about the architecture of Bernard Maybeck, another day it could be a goofy video of a squirrel outside of Le Bateau Ivre.

You can help build the Willard Park Blog by commenting on posts, emailing me new stories and events, or by creating a Blogger account and collaborating on the site directly.
