An animal park opened here in 1968 on ground that had been salt evaporation ponds a few years earlier, and absorbed a land animal attraction called Africa USA in 1972. It drew Bay Area families for eighteen years before the operation moved to Vallejo in 1986, where it survives as Six Flags Discovery Kingdom. Software company campuses were built over the site it left behind.
That was 1 of the hidden places.
