BPWA in the News

We love seeing BPWA in print, this time in the New York Times in their "36 Hours" series, which features Berkeley. We are mentioned in Item 4, entitled
INTO THE WILD where our map is suggested for walking in Berkeley.

Every so often BPWA finds itself mentioned-- or even featured -- in the local press. News items that expand community awareness of our mission and our progress are very welcome.

Not about us, but a nice article on a few of the celebrated paths in Los Angeles. This piece is from the Los Angeles Times. You may wish to try a few of these stairways the next time you are in the City of Angels.

Some Past New Items on BPWA

Although a bit dated now, this article in the San Francisco Chronicle from July 2004 gives a good reporter's view of BPWA and the path-building activities that we have fostered. It includes some history of the Path Wanderers, as well as information about projects that were under way a few years ago.

Also, another older piece done by William Rodarmor for the Summer 2004 issue of the Berkeley Hills Realty Newsletter entitled "Paths of Least Resistance" is definitely worth reading.

Finally, there is a nice article on Berkeley: City's Rocks and Strolls, from the San Francisco Chronicle that was done in November 2005.
