Temescal
Telegraph Avenue-between 40th and 55th Streets-is the "town center" for Oakland’s historic Temescal District. Nearly 200 businesses provide almost any essential service you can imagine, just a few block from the front door of this lovely home — shops, restaurants and cafes, medical and alternative health care, delicatessen, bakery, antiques, books, baby supplies, knitting, sport fitness, drug store, fast food, martial arts, video rental, banking, veterinarian and more. There are many artists and musicians in the neighborhood and the studios to support them. Important public services in the neighborhood include a U.S. post office, public library, the historic Temescal Pool and even the Department of Motor Vehicles.Click here for more information on the Temescal Farmers' Market
