As you likely know, its a very small place, mostly industrial, commercial, large box retail, with a few large apartment complexes. The worst of it, all the tracks with trains running all hours of the day and night, making noise and shaking the ground.
Before deciding on Alameda (Shoreline Drive), the only place in Emeryville I considered living were the condos off of Powell and Commodore, near Trader Vics restaurant.

My bad, I was living in the Dogpatch in SF around 2012 so that time frame. I remember Emeryville was where you hung out to fuck around if it wasn't Oakland.
Also I just went on google maps for west Oakland and they gentrified the HELL out of it near 880 in Prescott area. Clearly I need to visit the Bay Area again.
