About West

End

West End, located between Webster Street and the Posey Tube, is a residential and waterfront Alameda neighborhood with a working-harbor edge and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Webster Street near Lincoln Avenue, where corner taquerias, longtime barbershops, and small markets set a steady, everyday rhythm. Craftsman bungalows and mid-century apartments sit beside marinas and low-slung industrial buildings tied to the island’s naval past. Encinal Beach and the shoreline paths frame morning walks and sunset views across the estuary. Spirits Alley anchors the local tasting scene with St. George Spirits, Almanac Beer Co., and Rock Wall Wine Company. Ferry service at Main Street adds a commuter-friendly link to San Francisco.
