    Historic Context Statement City of Benicia February 2011 Benicia, CA Prepared for City of Benicia Department of Public Works & Community Development Prepared by page & turnbull, inc. 1000 Sansome Street, Ste. 200, San Francisco CA 94111 415.362.5154 / www.page-turnbull.com Benicia Historic Context Statement FOREWORD “Benicia is a very pretty place; the situation is well chosen, the land gradually sloping back from the water, with ample space for the spread of the town. The anchorage is excellent, vessels of the largest size being able to tie so near shore as to land goods without lightering. The back country, including the Napa and Sonoma Valleys, is one of the finest agriculture districts in California. Notwithstanding these advantages, Benicia must always remain inferior in commercial advantages, both to San Francisco and Sacramento City.”1 So wrote Bayard Taylor in 1850, less than three years after Benicia’s founding, and another three years before the city would—at least briefly—serve as the capital of California. In the century that followed, Taylor’s assessment was echoed by many authors—that although Benicia had all the ingredients for a great metropolis, it was destined to remain in the shadow of others. Yet these assessments only tell a half truth. While Benicia never became the great commercial center envisioned by its founders, its role in Northern California history is nevertheless one that far outstrips the scale of its geography or the number of its citizens. Benicia gave rise to the first large industrial works in California, hosted the largest train ferries ever constructed, and housed the West Coast’s primary ordnance facility for over 100 years.

Tribe follows tribe, and nation follows nation, like the waves of the sea. It is the order of nature and regret is useless. Your time of decay may be distant — but it will surely come, for even the White Man whose God walked and talked with him as friend with friend cannot be exempt from the common destiny. We may be brothers after all. Let the White Man be just and deal kindly with my people, for the dead are not powerless. Dead — I say? There is no death. Only a change of worlds.

  • The Origins of Lake Washington Sockeye Salmon: What Can Genetic Data Tell
    The Origins of Lake Washington Sockeye Salmon: What Can Genetic Data Tell Us? Eric C. Anderson Interdisciplinary Program in Quantitative Ecology and Resource Management Box 351720, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195 Currently, four well-established populations of sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) spawn in the Lake Washington basin. These include beach spawners (primarily at Pleasure Point), and populations spawning in the Cedar River, Issaquah Creek, and the Sammamish River tributaries (principally Bear Creek). The origin of the Bear Creek population (i.e., native or non-native) is uncertain. Historical records of sockeye in Bear Creek are limited, and the genetic data, though suggestive of a native origin, are not conclusive. Early reports (Evermann and Meek 1898; Rathbun 1900; Evermann and Goldsborough 1907) indicate that O. nerka spawned in Lake Washington’s tributaries at the turn of the century. Most of these reports are now believed to be of kokanee, the nonanadromous form of O. nerka (Shaklee et al. 1996). The presence of kokanee suggests that anadromous sockeye must have inhabited the basin at some time in the past (Wood and Foote 1996), perhaps even in the early 1900’s. Nonetheless, these populations may not have survived the dramatic changes to the watershed following the 1916 completion of the Lake Washington ship canal, which permanently dried the lake’s former outlet (the Black River, a tributary of the Duwamish) and established the Ship Canal as the watershed’s only link to the Pacic. Such changes might reasonably have had negative impacts on any contemporary, anadromous sockeye populations, and, indeed, the few historical records from that period suggest that anadromous sockeye were not present in the Lake Washington drainage during the 1920’s and ‘30’s (Cobb 1927; Rounsefell and Kelez 1938).

(Eastbound 1-80 traffic is carried by a parallel structure, erected in 1958.) The 1927 bridge was the first major auto bridge in the San Francisco Bay Area, predating by a decade the Golden Gate and San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridges. Replacing an auto ferry across the Carquinez Strait, the bridge was an important link in north-south traffic from the Bay Area to Northern California and the Pacific Northwest, as well as connecting the Bay Area to Sacramento and points east. The bridge's importance as a north-south link diminished somewhat with the opening of the Golden Gate Bridge in 1937, but it remains a critical highway link between the Bay Area and Sacramento, carrying an average of more than fifty thousand vehicles per day.

  • King County Streams Monitoring Update for September 2018
    King County Streams Monitoring Update for September 2018 The Sammamish River (seen here looking downstream at the York Bridge in Redmond) and its corridor have undergone a substantial transformation since colonization in the late 19th century. The river has been dredged and straightened. What once was a network of wetland and meanders has been replaced with productive croplands with agricultural ditches. Thank you for your interest in the Streams Monitor, a monthly update from King County's Routine Stream and River Monitoring Program, which samples water quality at 74 sites on streams each month. This month the focus is on the Sammamish River. The Sammamish is one of the major rivers of King County. It runs from the north end of Lake Sammamish to the north end of Lake Washington. The Sammamish River watershed spans 13 cities and two counties and drains a variety of landscapes from the Issaquah Alps in the south to the Sammamish Plateau in the east to Lynnwood in the north. October 24, 2018 The Taming of the Slough – A Brief History of the Sammamish River Prior to European colonization, the Sammamish River corridor was a system of vast willow-infested wetlands with a narrow, meandering channel. The complex system of emergent, shrub, and forested wetland provided ideal habitat for fish, large and small mammals, and birds. Authors Stickney and McDonald described “dense forest [that] clothed the land and shut in the winding waterway.” October 24, 2018 A major Native American winter village, tlah-WAH-dees, was located at the mouth of the Sammamish River, which was occupied by the ssts'p-abc (“meander dwellers”) and s-tah- PAHBSH (“willow people”).
