Frank H. Ogawa Plaza 1 Frank H. Ogawa Plaza, Oakland, CA 94612

"A small triangle park in front of city hall with its signature oak tree. I wish the upkeep of this park was a bit better especially because it’s in front of the city’s seat of power."

"Oakland has an impressive and active City Hall Plaza. Unfortunately, the only open entrance to City Hall is the 14th Street access. It will be great when the 'people's house' is fully accessible from all 3 access points."

"Frank H. Ogawa was a council member back in the days for many years. This plaza is named after him. I have walked through this plaza ever since the 60's. I was there Sunday for a rally and celebration of the Oakland High Wildcats young men's basketball team and the Oakland Tech Bulldogs young lady's basketball team. Congrats to the two Oakland teams, representing the city and state, as champions. I am aware that the City of Oakland have gotten plenty of negativity in the media, but this event was a positive one and enjoyed by the families and friends of this community and the schools."

"Once again we celebrated Good Friday Service at City Hall and it was wonderful and uplifting all nationalities were present. The rain didn't stop the people from coming. Bishop Bob Jackson did a great job in putting this event together. The ministers who attended brought forth the word and the praise team was awesome."

"Where all protests in Oakland gravitate towards. Its civil most times, always full of people, and a great big beautiful Quercus agrifola displayed as part of the city's namesake. A bust of Frank Ogawa sits on the north side of the plaza."
