The 1854 Alviso Adobe is one of the oldest structures in the City of Pleasanton and has been listed on the California State Register of Historic Places (site 510) as a unique location that demonstrates an exceptional intersection of culture and history. The Alviso Adobe Community Park Alviso Adobe interprets three distinct periods of history by revealing or recreating artifacts and architecture from the site. Native American bedrock mortar, as well as other Native American artifacts, are made accessible and interpreted by signage and museum-style display boards. In addition, the Californio period is presented in the form of fully and accurately restored Alviso Adobe, complete with period furnishing. Recreating the historic milking barn and bunkhouse highlights the adobe’s dairy period.
Visitors enter the park from a 30-space parking lot off Foothill Road, with a drop-off zone at the site’s southern tip as well as a bus turnout. Other site improvements include a new interpretive adobe wall at the southern entrance to the site, lighted walkways, a small amphitheater and group gathering space, gardens and interpretive signage and displays.
