Downtown Hayward is gearing up for a vibrant November filled with exciting updates and events!Â
Prepping for the Holiday Season
Both locals and visitors will soon notice exciting changes taking shape in the area. Among the improvements, you can expect to see new planters that add a splash of color and life to the streets, along with charming strand lights strung along Foothill Boulevard. These updates will not only beautify the area during the day but create a warm and inviting atmosphere at night. In addition, Downtown Hayward Improvement Association (DHIA) is launching new banner programs that will further enhance the neighborhood’s visual appeal. Banners will be decorated with prints of downtown public art murals.
To top it off, as the holiday season approaches, DHIA will transform Foothill Boulevard into a festive wonderland, with holiday lights illuminating the overhead arches.
