The Altenheim complex is on top of the northern side of the Sausal Creek valley, just across the freeway from the reservoir near the McKillop slide. There seems to be a little ground displacement here, too.
This view shows the downhill side of the property, on MacArthur Boulevard where it takes a leftward jog north of upper Fruitvale Avenue. The more I explore the stream valleys cutting through the Fan, the more of this I see.

Dear Andrew. My name is Craig Wilson and I have a question about your presentation “Urban Landslides – An Oakland Case Study.” The study has 12 photos, two of which I am particularly interested in. Could you please tell me when you took the photos that are in this study? Thank you very much.

Andrew,
I love your blog and been reading it periodically over the years. Your knowledge of geology and local history never disappoint. My name is Chris and I am building an interpretive sign for the upper entrance of the Leona Heights Park on Campus Drive. I would be curious if you would be willing to meet with me sometime. I would like to discuss what you would feel would be some key geologic points highlight in the interpretive material. Please feel free to contact me by email at greenrosettas@gmail.com and let me know what you think. Also to anyone else out there if you would like to be involved in the project please let me know.
Thank you.
