History of Drawbridge

About fifty years ago, the last inhabitant of Drawbridge left. Drawbridge was a small community in the middle of the south Bay marshes, about 3 miles north of Alviso, that existed from the late 1880s to mid-1970s. Learn about what was the catalyst for it to form, why people lived there, and about their life and times on Drawbridge.

The presentation will take place in the pavilion at the Environmental Education Center in Alviso at the Don Edwards SF Bay NWR. Option afterwards to take a ~3.2 round trip walk to the viewpoint to see buildings across Coyote Creek on Station Island (bring lots of sun protection, plenty of water, and comfortable walking shoes).
