Alameda Point

I was googling the satelite image of Alameda point for good pic spots and I noticed that there is an airport there. Do any of you know if it is still open? If so, do you know if they let cars use the runway?

You may be able to get onto the runway. It is open, a lot of privately owned businesses but a few nice spots to take pics.

These are at the Naval Air Station:

In front of a hangar doorway

I went to a audi meet at the naval base and we just took over and set up a small auto X and drag, some cops rolled by and told us to just keep it safe and thanked us for keeping it off the street 0_o.

You can't get out on the actual runways. They are closed to the public, however the hanger tarmac is usually open.

Since everyone is posting their alameda point shots I will too.
