About:

The City of Emeryville is located on the east shore of the San Francisco Bay in Alameda County, bordered by the City of Berkeley to its north and the City of Oakland to the east and south. The city is small, just over 1 square mile, but its strategic location in the center of the Bay Area urban core at the confluence of several major freeways, 1 of the world's busiest bridges, and transcontinental rail lines with service to Seattle, Los Angeles, and Chicago makes it a highly desirable place to live, work, and shop. Even before it was called "Emeryville," this place was recognized as an ideal location for settlement by indigenous people and the Spanish and Americans that followed them.
