Description

Cloyne Court, 1966. Cloyne Court was named after Cloyne, the village in Ireland where George Berkeley was bishop. The building was one of a rare few to survive the devastating 1923 Berkeley fire, remarkable also because the building is made out of redwood and all of the buildings had (and still have) wood shake siding and roofs. It was probably the first apartment house in Berkeley. It stood on property acquired by E.B. Goddard, Trustee of UC. Cloyne Court was sold by the Pierce family in 1946 to the University Students' Cooperative Association (today BSC) for $125,000.
