Waking up to the news that the Bay Bridge was closed this morning, I started thinking of the many ways one could get to San Francisco from Burlingame without crossing any bridges. Bart connects in Millbrae and if you live close to Adeline Drive, you can take the shuttle to the station and don’t need a car at all. Caltrains stops in Burlingame downtown and in Millbrae. If you need to drive and want city streets the option is to take El Camino Real north which will connect with Mission St in San Francisco. Like the more scenic route, take Skyline Blvd all the way to San Francisco. Of course it is easy to drive via Highway 101 or 280 however you might sit in traffic with all those commuters who just came over the San Mateo Bridge from the East Bay and have been on the road for hours.

After many months of debating this issue, the large eucalyptus tree in front of the Easton Branch Library has been removed. Burlingame residents love their trees and are proud of it’s designation  as a “TREE CITY USA”. There was a lot of resistence to removing this 100-foot tree. Unfortunately the tree’s roots had lifted the pavement on Easton Drive and made driving quite dangerous especially at night. The Easton Addition neighborhood in Burlingame is a much desired area to live in. Besides the may trees and the charming recently renovated library, residents enjoy that you can walk to the Broadway or Burlingame  Avenue restaurant and shopping area. Many of the school children in this neighborhood walk or bike to Franklin, Lincoln or Roosevelt Elementary School every morning. Now is a great time to purchase a home in this lovely neighborhood. 30% of all homes for sale in Burlingame are located here.
