Neighborhood

Glenview

Situated in the Oakland foothills, Glenview is a small residential neighborhood consisting of single-family bungalows and traditionally-styled dwellings dating back to the 1920s and 1930s. Most of the businesses in Glenview are mom-and-pop shops, and include a market and several salons. Highly-rated restaurants such as Bellanico and Blackberry Bistro add some gourmet flair to the Park Boulevard business district, which offers great vistas of the bay. The Glenview Neighborhood Association and Glenfriends have adopted Park Boulevard, sponsoring the Park Boulevard Median Cleanup and Planting Day on the boulevard median. Twelve-acre Dimond Park runs along Glenview's eastern side, with oak and redwood trees populating the green space. Amenities include picnic areas, playgrounds, and a swimming pool.

To one side of Ardley, Park Boulevard provides great transport flexibility having a freeway onramp, two SF carpool locations and stops for the SF Express V bus. To the other side is Upper Fruitvale Ave with another carpool and SF Express N bus along with a newly remodeled Library, high end cafes like Peet's, La Farine and the indispensable Farmer Joe's Grocery.
