The fault line is outlined on the concrete by the reptile house at the zoo. There's an information plaque by the outline.
The Hayward Fault: "This fault is about 74 mi (119 km) long,[1] situated mainly along the western base of the hills on the east side of San Francisco Bay. It runs through densely-populated areas, including the cities of Richmond, El Cerrito, Berkeley, Oakland, San Leandro, Hayward, Fremont, and San Jose." (
