OAKLAND HERITAGE ALLIANCE HOUSE and GARDEN TOUR 2009 “Oakland’s Fernwood Neighborhood” October 4, 2009 1:00-5:30PM This charming section of the Montclair district was formed in 1852, just as Oakland (then four miles away!) was being incorporated. Once an isolated community near the headwaters of Temescal Creek known for exotic wildlife and an abundance of Redwoods, Fernwood as we know it grew out of the real estate boom of the 1920s when Period Revival homes were built and marketed towards people “of average means.” Join us as we tour eight beautiful privately owned Fernwood homes in Tudor, Spanish, French and Colonial revival styles.
