[edit] Earthquake prepareness

Since the building is located close to the Hayward Fault, it was designed to withstand a major earthquake.[2]

It is home to the Hayward-Russell City Blues Festival in July. Other buildings nearby include the Hayward Public Library, the Lucky Shopping Center and B Street Marketplace.
