formerly "Main St. Oakland is 1/2 Vacant"
Documenting the decline in commercial properties being actively occupied as of the end of 2010. Representative of Main Street -- which means this is not as bad as it gets nowadays -- side streets are even emptier.
I could not upload the audio track correctly -- so until i fix it, if you want to hear your intrepid oaklandish tour guides, play the mp3 at http://www.and.goodluckwithth.at/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/oakland-ghosttown.mp3 simultaneously.

Be seeing you.
