Location

The heart of Berkeley is the best possible location for the Brower Center. The Center will be across the street from the University of California, well served by public transit, and at the epicenter of an area that celebrates progressive thought and action.

Long known for a commitement to social change, downtown Berkeley attracts a diverse population of students, residents, workers, and international visitors. The Brower Center has already forged ties with UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business, Graduate School of Journalism, College of Environmental Design, Energy and Resources Group, and the Bancroft Library, which houses David Brower's archives. Brower Center tenants will enjoy access to the university's vast resources while offering excellent opportunities for students to get involved with real-world environmental activism.

Highlights of the Brower Center's location:

• Next to UC Berkeley campus and its more than 33,000 students
• Near AC Transit and central Berkeley BART station
• Twenty minutes from San Francisco
• Ten minutes from Oakland
• Two blocks from Berkeley High School and its 3,000 students
• Three blocks from Vista Community College and its 4,500 students
• Part of the Oxford Street revitalization that includes a nearby planned hotel/conference center, Berkeley Art Museum, and the Pacific Film Archive.
• Supported by local officials, business community, and civic institutions
