A Map of Berkeley, Oakland & Alameda, created in 1930 by Eugene Neuhaus in collaboration with Michael Baltekal Goodman, is an Art Deco city portrait that fuses orientation with romance. A spare, lucid street lattice occupies the center, while saturated color drenches the Bay, the hills, and the margins where stories reside. Wind cherubs breathe over the Estuary as a capering sea creature keeps watch offshore. Across the blue, ancient galleons and sleek ferries share water with modern steamers. Elevations of landmark buildings punctuate neighborhoods, and small vignettes recount seminal episodes in East Bay history. As a city map, it is notable for uniting three distinct municipalities into one legible organism and for balancing the grid—Shattuck, Telegraph, Grand—with narrative pleasures and quotations celebrating the region’s verve.
In Berkeley, the cartographers compose a civic symphony from its principal avenues. Track Shattuck Avenue from Downtown northward past Berkeley Way, Hearst Avenue, Hopkins Street, and Marin Avenue, or follow University Avenue as it draws a ceremonial line from campus to the working waterfront. The map lingers on Telegraph Avenue and College Avenue, where street life spills toward Elmwood and along Claremont Boulevard into the hills, crowned by the grand Claremont Hotel in elevation. Academic emblems—Sather Tower, the Greek Theatre, and other collegiate silhouettes—rise crisply amid tree-lined blocks, while Ashby Avenue carves a southern boundary alive with commerce. Neuhaus and Goodman use bold color to push the Berkeley Hills forward like a proscenium, suffusing the scholastic city with aspiration and coastal light.
Oakland’s civic geometry is rendered with superb clarity. Downtown’s orthogonal grid—Franklin, Webster, and Harrison—meets Grove Street (later Martin Luther King Jr. Way) as avenues radiate toward neighborhoods and the lake. Grand Avenue arcs around Lake Merritt, mirrored by Lakeshore Avenue, while Piedmont Avenue climbs toward Mountain View Cemetery. West Grand Avenue and West MacArthur Boulevard stride to industry and piers; 40th Street points to the Key Route ferry pier where trains met boats. 1st Avenue skims the lake’s eastern edge, and 24th and 39th Avenues thread eastward toward the tidelands. East 14th Street and Foothill Boulevard spear southeast, with Park Boulevard winding the hills. In a lively vignette, the Oakland Municipal Airport hums with biplanes as the estuary bristles with ferries, freighters, and tugboats—modern bustle set against echoes of Spanish galleons.
Across the Oakland Estuary, Alameda unfurls as an island jewel of neighborhoods and shorelines. Webster Street anchors the northern approach, newly linked in this era by the Posey Tube, while quieter byways—Catalina Way, Merced Street, and Tuller Road—hint at the island’s residential calm and its reach toward Bay Farm. Beaches and yacht basins fringe tranquil blocks of Victorian-era streets, their charm amplified by Goodman’s neat elevations and by marine traffic skimming the narrow channels. Ancient and contemporary vessels share the same bright waters—schooners and steam ferries threading between Alameda and the East Bay—while a playful mythical sea creature cavorts offshore. The island’s proximity to the bustling Oakland Municipal Airport underscores a region poised between leisure and speed.
The collaboration marries Neuhaus’s painterly eye—he was a prominent Berkeley-based artist and influential teacher in California—with Goodman’s consummate skill in pictorial cartography. Their Art Deco sensibility shines in the brilliant palette, crisp letterforms, and ornamental wind cherubs that recall Renaissance portolans even as the map fixes a distinctly 1930 viewpoint. Elevations of notable buildings act as beacons above a minimalist street lattice that clarifies navigation along Shattuck, Telegraph, Piedmont, Park, and University, then out to West 14th, West MacArthur, and the avenues of the East Bay plain. Quotations sprinkled through the composition celebrate the region’s energy and promise. As a city map, it is both guide and myth, capturing the East Bay on the cusp of transformations that would soon recast its waterfront.

Please double check the images to make sure that a specific town or place is shown on this map. You can also get in touch and ask us to check the map for you.
This is a very large map that must be ordered at a large size, so that you can easily make out all of the details.
This map looks amazing at sizes all the way up to 100in (250cm). If you are looking for a larger map, please get in touch.
The model in the listing images is holding the 16x20in (40x50cm) version of this map.
The fifth listing image shows an example of my map personalisation service.
If you’re looking for something slightly different, check out my collection of the best old maps to see if something else catches your eye.
Please contact me to check if a certain location, landmark or feature is shown on this map.
This would make a wonderful birthday, Christmas, Father's Day, work leaving, anniversary or housewarming gift for someone from the areas covered by this map.
This map is available as a giclée print on acid free archival matte paper, or you can buy it framed. The frame is a nice, simple black frame that suits most aesthetics. Please get in touch if you'd like a different frame colour or material. My frames are glazed with super-clear museum-grade acrylic (perspex/acrylite), which is significantly less reflective than glass, safer, and will always arrive in perfect condition.
This map is also available as a float framed canvas, sometimes known as a shadow gap framed canvas or canvas floater. The map is printed on artist's cotton canvas and then stretched over a handmade box frame. We then "float" the canvas inside a wooden frame, which is available in a range of colours (black, dark brown, oak, antique gold and white). This is a wonderful way to present a map without glazing in front. See some examples of float framed canvas maps and explore the differences between my different finishes.
For something truly unique, this map is also available in "Unique 3D", our trademarked process that dramatically transforms the map so that it has a wonderful sense of depth. We combine the original map with detailed topography and elevation data, so that mountains and the terrain really "pop". For more info and examples of 3D maps, check my Unique 3D page.

Mi marco estándar es un marco de madera de fresno negro estilo galería. Es simple y tiene un aspecto bastante moderno. Mi marco estándar tiene alrededor de 20 mm (0.8 in) de ancho.
Utilizo acrílico super claro (perspex/acrylite) para el vidrio del marco. Es más ligero y seguro que el vidrio, y se ve mejor, ya que la reflectividad es menor.
Seis colores de marco estándar están disponibles de forma gratuita (negro, marrón oscuro, gris oscuro, roble, blanco y oro antiguo).El enmarcado y montaje/matizado personalizado está disponible si buscas algo diferente.
La mayoría de los mapas, arte e ilustraciones también están disponibles como un lienzo enmarcado. Utilizamos lienzo de algodón mate (no brillante), lo estiramos sobre un marco de madera de caja de origen sostenible, y luego 'flotamos' la pieza dentro de un marco de madera. El resultado final es bastante hermoso, y no hay cristal que se interponga.
Todos los marcos se proporcionan "listos para colgar", con una cuerda o soportes en la parte posterior. Los marcos muy grandes tendrán placas de colgar de alta resistencia y/o un listón de montaje. Si tienes alguna pregunta, por favor ponte en contacto.
Mira algunos ejemplos de mis mapas enmarcados y mapas en lienzo enmarcados.
Alternativamente, también puedo proporcionar mapas antiguos y obras de arte en lienzo, tablero de espuma, papel de algodón y otros materiales.

Obtengo mapas originales y raros de bibliotecas, casas de subastas y colecciones privadas de todo el mundo, los restauro en mi taller de Londres y luego uso tintas e impresoras giclée especializadas para crear hermosos mapas que lucen incluso mejor que el original.
