Enchanting villa in the Claremont

It was designed in 1924 by Duncan McDuffie who developed the Claremont and the Northbrae neighborhoods of Berkeley and sophisticated St. Francis Woods in San Francisco. He also was a well known conservationist, president of the Sierra Club and helped establish the East Bay Regional Park System as well as the California State Park system.

Rotary Peace Grove at Tilden Park

Image
High atop the hills of Tilden Park sits a serene sanctuary known as the Rotary Peace Grove. This section of the park was donated to Berkeley Rotary in 1955 when they began planting redwood trees. Each year, a different tree is dedicated to a leader in world peace and bronze plaques are displayed with the honorees' names at the base of each tree. The members of the Rotary club prune and  clean up regularly to help preserve the magic and the beauty. The hike to the grove makes a wonderful outing for the entire family.
