The Splendid Life of a Benicia-ite
Residents get to enjoy many perks including that amazing beautiful northern California weather. Just the thought of it conjures up images of a collective “Ahhhh.” The town is divided into four areas: East Side, West Side, Southampton, and the Industrial Park.
Making History
Factoid: Benicia was the capital of California for a whole 13 months. This was California’s third capitol building where the state legislature canoodled (okay, not literally) from 1853 to 1854. It is the only pre-Sacramento capitol building still standing. The building has been restored and done up with furniture and tchotchkes from back in the day. Here you can see original desks furnished with items you will not see at IKEA: a candlestick, a 19th century newspaper, a quill pen, and a top hat. If only life at a desk were as simple now. Sigh. Where is that pesky top hat?
Festivities, Fun, and More Fun
Benicia is family oriented with plenty of festivals, activities, and events to get everyone excited and loving life. They have a Farmers Market in the summer where residents can sniff out fresh fare, listen to music, and feel healthy. Some of the local events include “First Fridays on First,” “Arts in the Park,” “Torchlight Parade and Dance,” “Christmas at the Clocktower,” and the “Holy Ghost Parade.”
Ponder your existence or ogle wildlife at the Benicia State Recreation Area. Right next to downtown, this wild place covers 720 acres of marsh, hillsides, and beaches along the Carquinez Strait. The Southampton Bay Wetland Natural Preserve makes up most of the park. If you keep your eyes and ears open, and your mouth shut, you might see coyote, otters, muskrats, beavers, or even spot an endangered northern salt marsh harvest mouse. If you don’t like looking at nature and have the urge to just move, take advantage of the 2.5 miles of road and bike paths here. Hike, bike, walk, or skate your way on through. Picnic areas are also available for those who just want to sit down and eat.
In addition to fantastic apartments, you’ll also find an active sailing community with several events and competitions in the summer. Check out the Benicia Yacht Club for info. They also host non-boating like events like a lobster and clam bake. Yum. Who needs sailing when you can eat at a bake?
The city boasts an internationally recognized artist community. The Benicia Arsenal serves as living and work spaces for artists and artisans. The Arsenal is on the National Registry of Historic Places and includes other historic landmarks like The Clock Tower, the Camel Barn, and the Jefferson Street Mansion.
