The City of Berkeley, at the request of the Telegraph Business Improvement District, cleared out the Dwight Triangle on the corner of Telegraph Avenue and Dwight Way this morning, and
Berkeley’s beloved food scene is set to take on yet another familiar dish: cookies. Both Crumbl Cookies and Insomnia Cookies are opening their first stores in the East Bay neighborhood just a couple of hundred feet apart on Bancroft Way.
2022 proved to be an eventful year for Berkeley’s historic People’s Park. In April, community members gathered to celebrate the 52nd anniversary of the park. In August, during an overnight operation, the University of California fenced off the park for the construction of a student housing site. Within hours, protesters halted construction, and the fight over People’s Park wages on.
