Albany Waterfront Trail/Albany Bulb

---

I visited the Albany Bulb a couple of times, this day and 22 March 2009. I believe once a landfill for at least construction materials. You will find some old concrete and rebar in places along the trail. There is also some cool artwork in the NW corner of the bulb, that I didn't stumble across until my second visit there.

Here are the photos from my visits there.

Trail/Bulb Entrance Artwork
You can see the treed hill of El Cerrito in the background.

Dog Beach
I don't think it is called that, but this is a great place to bring your dog and let them chase balls in the surf.

Palm Trees on a Landfill?
True enough, in at least this one place.

Love Castle
In the shape of a heart.

Sitting Man
With a farm/lawn implement.

Truckasaurus?
Possibly a little more tame from this angle.

Martial Artist
Note the unimpressed water fowl.

Partners in Art
Art imitating itself.

Flowing Hair
I thought that was particularly well done.

Golden Gate Fields
The horse track, looking SE toward the back of the building. This day (5 April) was the Daschund Derby. Every other race was a race run by 10 to 12 Daschunds. Their race "course" was about a 30 yard straightaway. Pretty funny though as some of them just ran all over the place.
