This plaque marks the location of an 1890 seawall on the Alameda shoreline. Behind you are the stairs where bathers went down to the beach. The wall was built by architect Joseph A. Leonard, who constructed many homes here during the 1890s.

This ironwork fence was erected in 1998 by the Alameda Architectural Preservation Society, an organization dedicated to the preservation and beautification of the historic neighborhoods of our city.
