I also worked in that area in 2016. I worked in San Leandro, not far from the Oakland A’s and Raiders’ stadium and the airport.
There was an In-N-Out on Hesperian where we’d sometimes grab lunch. I wonder if that area has gone to ruin as well? It was pretty decent the year I was there, as was Hayward, where I lived.
I used to love traveling through San Leandro, near Doolittle Street. I think that is where Grandma’s Cookies used to bake their products. “Love” is in the air!
