Tucked away on the grounds of the Meyers House Museum is a newly rejuvenated gem. The Mission style studio was completed in 1935 and designed by Mildred Meyers for her father, Henry. He was the influential Alameda architect responsible for the Posey Tube, the Veteran’s Building, and many other institutional structures, as well as a handful of Island residences. The Meyers House and Studio are open from 1-4 p.m. the fourth Saturday of each month at 2021 Alameda Avenue between Willow and Chestnut Streets. For information, 510.523.5907.
