EMERYVILLE WEATHER

City of Emeryville is located in northwest Alameda County, California. It lies in a corridor between the cities of Berkeley and Oakland, with a border on the shore of San Francisco Bay. The resident population was 12,905 as of 2020.[7] Its proximity to San Francisco, the Bay Bridge, the University of California, Berkeley, and Silicon Valley has been a catalyst for recent economic growth. The California and Nevada Railroad was a 3 ft narrow gauge steam railroad which ran in the East Bay of the San Francisco Bay Area in the late 19th century. It was incorporated on March 25, 1884. J.S. Emery was listed as the railroad's president, Emeryville is named after JS Emery. Te City became known as the “Industrial Center of the West” due to the rapid development of the industrial and manufacturing plants that were established early in this century. By the mid 1890s, JB Emery's and environs was a motley community with odiferous stockyards to the north, a paint plant and iron mill along the shore. During WWII, Federal money poured into the Bay Area’s shipbuilding and defense industries, and Emeryville geared up for war. Factories operated 24-hours a day with 3 shifts and workers came from all over the country. The town’s 185 industrial firms employed almost 30,000 workers, including many women and African-Americans, to fulfill government contracts. Existing industries, such as Pabco Paints and Westinghouse, expanded their operations, and new facilities were established, such as the Grove Regulator Company and Ryerson Steel Mill, both at 65th and Hollis Streets in old Butchertown.
