Long before the City saw its business growth, Dublin was simply a great place to live. The City's many residential
opportunities offer something for everyone -from town homes and condominiums to luxury estate homes - in
both established neighborhoods and new masterplanned communities. Many areas are reserved for open space and
community recreation.
Central to Dublin's development is a dedication to the elements that create an environment where people love
where they live. Explore the vast hiking and biking trails that provide views of majestic Mt. Diablo, or take
advantage of the many parks -fourteen in all -that offer something for everyone. Alamo Creek Park consists
of eight acres with basketball courts, Mape Memorial Park provides sand volleyball courts and Emerald Glen
boasts one of the largest skate parks in the Tri-Valley. The Dublin Civic Center, Dublin Senior Center, Dublin
Heritage Center and Dublin Swim Center are also popular facilities for community gatherings.
The City strives to develop and implement quality programs for all ages that provide recreational experiences,
encourage healthy lifestyles and preserve the City's proud heritage. As the City continues to develop, additional
parks and facilities will be added to accommodate the growing population.

includes six elementary schools -all offering

Dublin High School and Valley High School.
The schools in the Dublin Unified School District
have been honored time and again with the

The City has contributed substantial financial
resources to technology programs that provide
our youth with the skills and tools to succeed
in a constantly changing world.

What began with a simple but powerful philosophy continues to guide the City of Dublins
visionary approach to economic development and community expansion: business thrives
where people thrive.
Now, in addition to the splendid recreational and sporting facilities that have long been
associated with Dublin, the City has entertainment and shopping to rival any in the area.
Dublin and its surrounding communities offer excellent shopping -from malls with
national and regional chain stores, to neighborhood plazas with specialty shops. The
Hacienda Crossings Shopping Center includes such name tenants as Best Buy, Old Navy,
Barnes and Noble, and includes a 21 screen movie complex -the largest in the Tri-Valley
complete with astate-of--the-art IMAX screen. A wonderfully diverse variety of restaurants
and other cultural activities are all now available without leaving the City.
Hacienda Crossings oj}ers a variety of dining and shopping experiences -including astate-of-the-art IMAX theater.

While Dublin residents have plenty to do right at home, dramatic changes of scenery are only
hours away. For a slightly broader horizon you need only board a BART train to find yourself
just steps away from a Broadway show in downtown San Francisco. Wine connoisseurs are only
a hop, sip and jump from both the neighboring Livermore wine country and world-class Napa
Valley and Sonoma wine regions. If you're willing to spend a couple of hours behind the wheel,
you can be sampling fresh seafood in Monterey or relaxing at a Calistoga spa. Also within easy
reach are dozens of beautiful lakes and the Sacramento Delta offering a variety of water sports
and recreation. Skiing in the Sierra Mountains and the natural splendor of Yosemite National
Park are both within day-trip range.
Whether your professional and personal needs take you around town or around the globe,
Dublin is the destination of choice for corporate citizens and their families. A friendly small-town
spirit, award-winning schools, excellent recreational facilities and community services, as well as
a low crime rate, make Dublin an inviting place to live. Convenient freeway access, state-of-the-
art public transit and a thriving, business-friendly environment make Dublin the best corporate
address in the Bay Area.
We invite you to consider Dublin - it really is a great place to grow!
