(Cover photos from left to right) Built in 1854, Pleasanton’s Alviso Adobe was one of the first structures built in the Amador Valley and is listed on the California State Register of Historic Places. The adobe was built by ranchero Francisco Alviso and served as the center of a 300-acre ranch, later becoming the site of California’s first certified dairy in the early 1900s. Of the more than 700 adobe structures originally constructed in the San Francisco Bay Area during the Spanish and Mexican periods, just a few exist today, including the newly restored Alviso Adobe, which serves as the centerpiece of Alviso Adobe Community Park in Pleasanton. This historic and cultural park provides visitors with a glimpse into the past to learn about life during three significant periods of history. *** The Pleasanton arch is the most recognizable icon in the city and dates back to 1932, when it was presented to the City as a gift from the Pleasanton Women’s Club. Horns attached to the sign were used during World War II to signal air raids, and later in the 1950s to call volunteer firemen to duty. A newly renovated Pleasanton arch was unveiled in 2005 after an extensive refurbishing by City of Pleasanton staff. This welcoming portal is a source of pride among Pleasanton residents and serves as one of the few town gateway signs remaining in California. *** Main Street in downtown Pleasanton is the heart of the city and has served as its primary parade route for more than a century and has played been trod by U.S. Presidents Herbert Hoover and Calvin Coolidge. Everyone still loves a parade in Pleasanton, and Main Street is the site of many traditional parades that draw large crowds each year, including the annual Foothill Band Review, a parade to kick off soccer season, a Hometown Holidays parade in December, a Veteran’s Day Parade, and the colorful ‘March Under the Arch’ pictured here. It kicks off the Annual Scottish Games and Gathering in early September.
