Peralta Hacienda Historical Park — Attraction in Oakland

I lived right next door to this place Although inside is very beautiful the history they have is very nice but let's not talk about the park next door right next door to them where you find a lot of people smoking and doing other harmful drugs the park needs to Kept up better more garbage cans need to be around there also some of the pictures are lying they don't have a little bridge they don't have animals there it's a place that a lot of homeless people hang out at at the bottom of the historic park that is all connected together the bathroom they have their are public But they are closed and no one can use them and they're all tagged up the city needs to take care of this other than that inside of the house it's nice it gives you could history but everything around it on the outside is very sad. Be careful you don't find any needles and other stuff at your children could...

The park has a potential, but it needs lots of TLC .... Besides early Oakland history museum ( barely open), the ACE Summer Camp is there and all the garbage around, cracked booze bottles and who knows what, is exactly where kids are playing 😒 Not to mention that lots of teens doing their stuff there ... Since they try to bring the community together, especially in summer, the place really needs some efforts ... Just not safe...

this is worth a visit if you have a little time to spare. this is a pocket park in the making, right now there is a changing display with numerous 1st person neighborhood resident stories. where they came from, when they came, what they endured on the way. extremely moving. if you think that the united states may not be the best place to live, go read these stories. you will come away...
