| Description | As Oakland's torch passes from Mayor Jerry Brown to incoming Mayor Ron Dellums, the community is eager to know if Brown's legacy of growth and urban revitalization will continue. Many long term projects will change Oakland's landscape---transforming the Army Base, bringing new life to West Oakland, spreading development along the corridors, fulfilling on the Uptown and Oak to Ninth projects and the Jack London Square expansion. The Port remains an economic engine, with continued public/private development opportunities. Mayor Brown's vision for 10,000 downtown residents is nearly fulfilled, as the housing market cools. The office market may soon heat up. How will the new administration work with developers and the business community? Join us for a look into Oakland's future, and the people and projects that will shape it.
