Oakland Underfoot

Lakeshore Avenue at Walavista Avenue

The Piedmont Paving Company was founded in 1893 to operate the quarry in the Davie Tennis Stadium, which was originally the home of the Alameda Macadamizing Company quarry, upon the death of that company’s partner Hugh Slicer. Its offices were downtown in the Union Savings Bank Building. It remained in business into the 20th century.

Its sidewalk stamps are quite rare, and undated.
