Thousands of French immigrants arrived in California during the Gold Rush, and many eventually settled in Santa Clara Valley. Names like Sainsevain, Lefranc, Masson and Mirassou are now synonymous with wine. Louis Pellier introduced the prune to the Valley, which became the nation’s leading producer of prunes. San Jose streets bear the names of Antoine Delmas and Edward and John Auzerais. The photograph on the left shows early French immigrant Pedro Sainsevain and his sons Carlos and Paul Sainsevain along with Carlos’ wife Lydia Higuera. Don Pedro reservoir is named for Pedro Sainsevain. The de Saisset family is pictured on the right. Pedro de Saisset was an early French resident and served as the honorary Vice-Consul for the French government. The De Saisset Museum memorializes Pedro’s son, artist Ernest de Saisset, shown in the photo waving his hat.

    PROPOSAL FOR THE REHABILITATION and ADAPTIVE REUSE OF THE HENRY J. KAISER CONVENTION CENTER One Lake Merritt Submitted to the City of Oakland CREA TIVE November 12, 2014 DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS Text Here PROPOSAL FOR THE REHABILITATION and ADAPTIVE REUSE OF THE HENRY J. KAISER CONVENTION CENTER Submitted to the City of Oakland November 12, 2014 CREA TIVE DEVELOPMENT PARTNERS November 12, 2014 Dear Oakland, We love you. There, we said it. Feels much better to just come right out with it before we say anything else. We love you for so many reasons - you’re diverse, passionate and creative - you make us feel special. You make the Bay Area feel special. You stand for equality and opportunity while the world around us seems to simply stand by as equality and opportunity pass by. We’d do anything to be with you. So we’re giving you our heart, our imagination, and our soul. Please meet One Lake Merritt. Over the last two years, Creative Development Partners has fallen even more deeply in love with Oakland in assembling One Lake Merritt. We have learned a great deal, through the engagement of so many segments of the community, how we can build what Oakland needs, wants and deserves. But ultimately, we are proposing One Lake Merritt because we are an Oakland team. We are the team, the investors, and the deep relationships with the community, institutions and organizations, to work with the City to transform the Henry J. Kaiser Convention Center into a project that creates opportunities for all, propels the economy, and lifts up our identity.
