By now many, though not all, of the structures from the island's military era have been demolished (including the bowling alley in the photo). Environmental remediation is proceeding slowly.
A small community of mostly low-income families live in the island's housing, and some of the larger buildings are used as sound stages for film production and related industries. Fancier redevelopment is starting to accelerate.
@mattblaze@federate.social I've only been on that island once, for the flea market. But like everyone who has resided in the East Bay, I drove by it hundreds of times.
