South Shore, Alameda, California
37°45′35″N 122°15′28″W / 37.75972°N 122.25778°W / 37.75972; -122.25778 South Shore is a neighborhood in Alameda in Alameda County, California. It lies at an elevation of 13 feet (4 m).[1] It is located mostly on landfill extending from the (old sea wall) original south shore of the island, now a chain of artificial lagoons.[2] The land was created by the Utah Construction Company during the 1950s and 1960s, and the neighborhood was built in a more suburban style than the rest of the island, with a mix of Tract housing and large apartment complexes, and strict Single-use zoning. It is the location of the South Shore Center shopping complex, Alameda's only large shopping mall.[3] The two mile long Crown Memorial State Beach lies along the neighborhood's southern shore.
