History:
A listing enacted in 1890 when it was decided to change the street names of the city of Alameda to numbers beginning with First Street to 36th Street and houses numbered accordingly. The change was officially adopted by the Board of Trustees but failed due to unpopularity with the residents of the city of Alameda. The streets reverted back to the originally-named streets.
