Architecture
Fourth Street East's building design references the waterfront industrial history of the neighborhood through architectural metaphors for the rail and port materials and patterns that have been a part of this area for over a hundred years. The buildings evoke the district's distinct warehouses, which hail from the era of bulk cargo and trains, and stacked cargo shipping containers, which reference Oakland's historic role in the evolution of shipping in the 1970s.
Industrial and Port-inspired Interior Design
Historic and modern shipping in the Jack London neighborhood was incorporated throughout Fourth Street East's design in murals by local artists and industrial materials such as shipping rope, navigational maps, and steel ties throughout the building.
