1549 Shattuck Ave Offering Memorandum 4 ABOUT Nearly a half of a century later, the BERKELEY (Gourmet) Ghetto remains a hallowed pilgrimage for foodies around the world” HISTORY - Downtown Berkeley’s form and location are the enduring results of transit patterns established in 1878 when Francis Kittredge “ Forbes Magazine Shattuck brought a Southern Pacific spur line from Oakland along Adeline Street through his property, terminating at Stanford Square, later to be named Berkeley Square, now Shattuck Square. Two streets, Shattuck Avenue and University Avenue, have always played major roles in the organization of the Downtown.

Rare for a California city of its size, Downtown Berkeley has retained its original purpose and historic character, while showing evidence of a city which has adapted over time. The Downtown Area Plan places great emphasis on respecting the scale, use, and architectural character of Downtown Berkeley, while simultaneously encouraging architecture that addresses contemporary challenges with new forms of expression.

EDUCATION AND TECHNOLOGY - One of the nation’s leading research institutions, The University of California, Berkeley sits on a 178 acre hillside campus less than one-half mile from 1549 Shattuck Ave. The Cal campus serves a 40,000 strong student body in addition to staff and professors. Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory sits on 200 acres with a staff and student body of about 4,100 and is a 1.8 mile walk away. The University and Lab spur innovation and act as feeders to spaces like the Skydeck Innovation Center, a tech incubator of 10,000 sq. ft. at 2150 Shattuck Ave, about one-half mile from the Gourmet Ghetto.

ARTS AND ENTERTAINMENT - Berkeley is home to such world renown museums and theatres as: Berkeley Arts Museum, Pacific Film Archive, Bancroft Library, Zellerbach Hall, The Greek Theater, UC Theatre Taube Family Music Hall, Freight & Salvage, and the Berkeley Repertory Theatre. On Campus, Memorial Stadium and Haas Pavilion host Cal football and basketball games. These events draw regional and national crowds and fill up the local restaurants and bars before and after shows and on game days.

HOW THE GOURMET GHETTO GETS IT’S NAME - Perhaps no Berkeley institution has been more written about than Alice Water’s Chez Panisse. Visited by Presidents and Princes as well as your local Nobel Prize winners, the Chez continues to impress 40 years after its founding in 1971. But the Gourmet Ghetto is also home to The Cheese Board Collective and the original Peet’s (at Walnut & Vine). Other well regarded local dining options include: Saul’s Deli, Cesar, Epicurious Garden, Barney’s Gourmet Burgers, The Local Butcher Shop, Philz, Agrodolce and Crepevine.
