CLARIFYING ~E!if~KS: District known as OORANT MANORo Was subdivided and prac:tically .
. built up in ·1927-19280 There were many buildi:t!-g and loan foreclosure~ in . the ar~a.,
with consequent big decline in sales prices. There has been considerable recent
building activity from funds provided mainly by F oHoAo The area is· zoned ~irst .
rElside:ntial; the industrial area immediately ·s outh, was formerly occupied by DURANT
MOTOR COMPANYo Now is operated by the CEEVROLE'l, MO TOR . COMPANY as e truck assembly
plant. This is considered a beneficial influence, rather than othe;rwise.

CLARIFYING REMARKS: There were many ta~cJ osnres j n tb.ii a~ae ia 1g3& ea 1933, wUh
consequen t big decline in value. District has· not recovered es r&pldly as other areas
north of EAST · FOURTEE!ll"TH STREET. Moreover, new building construct ion in this ~ea has
been very scarce as compared with the great act ivity ,in northeas t, San Leandro. This
area known as BEST MANOR, is zo~ed first reside ntial o There 1a a distrlct south of thla
e.:rea :z.oned for industry, but 1s as yet largely undevelop ed. The CHEVROLET MOTOR· COMPANY'
hes a truok assembly plant at the corner of .]!'curteen th and Dur·a nt but this is considere d
