Oakland Underfoot

Broadway and Napa Street

Hundreds of sidewalk stamps have been wiped out by corner cutouts. That’s a necessary cost of accommodating wheelchairs and blind pedestrians. A few marks have escaped obliteration, and even fewer of those are still recognizable. This is the first Wiggins & Kaiser mark I’ve found, but given the huge role of the Kaiser industrial empire around here, I expect to find more.
