Heritage Walk Walnut Creek Signage Up around Downtown Walnut Creek

heritage-walk-signage-walnut-creek

The next time you’re in downtown Walnut Creek check for these new Heritage Walk signs with audio commentary to 50 sites. It looks like there are still technical difficulties with the audio part as the phone number is taped over. I called and entered the landmark site number but got a message that the “stop number” was invalid. Hopefully this will be available soon.

From the Walnut Creek Historical Society website:

To continue the Centennial celebration, the Historical Society will launch a self-guided mobile-phone Downtown Heritage Walk this fall – making Walnut Creek’s history available to the entire community at any time.

The Heritage Walk will feature some 50 sites – from Botelho’s Island (now Broadway Plaza) to the Nut House (now the Lesher Center for the Arts).

Each site will be marked with prominent signage on a street lamp post (see photo) that includes facts about the site and details on how to hear the audio (cell phone) tour.
