Help Name Alameda Point's 'Town Center'

City officials are asking Alamedans to help choose a new name for the area around Seaplane Lagoon via an online survey.

From a City of Alameda press release:

The City is seeking community input on naming Alameda Point's central hub.

We have narrowed the selection down to seven choices.

Please select your top three choices, or, you are free to use the "other" category to make your own original suggestion.

However, please do not propose any proper name of any person, living or deceased.

The survey is on the City’s website, or, can be directly accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/towncentername

This survey will remain open until 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 24, 2013.

On Wednesday, Sept. 25, the results of this survey will be announced at the joint meeting of the City Council and the Planning Board.

Alameda Point's central hub, the orange area on the attached map, is currently referred to as "Town Center."

This is a transit-oriented development with a variety of uses, including pedestrian and bicycle paths, outdoor recreation and open space and mixed-use residential development, as well as retail and commercial space.
