Oakland Point, Oakland, California

Oakland Point, or Gibbon's Point, was a small promontory formerly on the eastern shore of San Francisco Bay in West Oakland, California. It was located in the vicinity of what is now the Port of Oakland shipping terminal.
==History==
Oakland Point was originally named Gibbon's Point, for an early American settler who constructed a small wharf there. The wharf and adjacent properties were acquired by the Central Pacific Railroad in 1868, which subsequently constructed the Oakland Long Wharf, its own massive terminus for the Transcontinental Railroad.〔(''Crofutt's New Overland Tourist'' ), by George A. Crofutt, p 199 (1880), Google Book Search.〕 The Long Wharf was later acquired and re-engineered by the Southern Pacific Railroad in the 1880s as the Oakland Mole, obliterating Oakland Point.
In addition to the wharf, the Central Pacific had a huge rail yard in the area which also later became one of the main rail yards of the Southern Pacific. Today, the same rail yard is operated by the Union Pacific Railroad.
