alameda

Along the bank of the Rimac there is a new promenade planted with four rows of trees, called the alameda nueva.

On their approach becoming known, a great number of persons proceeded from Callao to the Alameda to meet them.

They were standing in toward Diamond Head and the Alameda lay hove to taking on the pilot.

For those portions of Alameda and Contra Costa counties visited a population of at least 2,400 is therefore indicated.

Alameda Island is described as having "a very thick grove of oaks and live oaks on the banks of the estuary."
