Emeryville used to be a bit of a wild-west sort of town with most of its revenue coming from gambling. After drawing a large amount of retail to the area, the city has enough money to have a vibrant public arts program.
The waymarks include art, a new train station, and a lovely example of a community garden. The featured waymark is the Amtrak station, as it counts for 2 of the categories and trains are cool!
