About Hayward, California
Hayward is a city of 162,954 people in Alameda County, on the east side of San Francisco Bay. The Ohlone people lived here before Europeans arrived, and in 1841 the land became part of Rancho San Lorenzo, a Spanish grant to Guillermo Castro. Most historians trace the town's name to William Dutton Hayward, who opened a hotel here in 1852 and later served as an Alameda County supervisor and road commissioner.
The spelling of the name changed several times. The first post office opened in 1860 under the name Haywood, and when the state chartered the town in 1876 it became Haywards. The post office took up that spelling in 1880. In 1911 the town dropped the final s and became Hayward, although the federal board that rules on place names did not accept the change until 1931.
- The 1868 earthquakeGuillermo Castro's home stood on El Camino Viejo, now Mission Boulevard, between C and D Streets, right on top of the Hayward Fault. The 1868 earthquake badly damaged it and destroyed most of the town's buildings. It was the last major quake on the fault. In 1930 the city built its City Hall on Castro's old site, and it served until 1969.
- A curb that tracked the faultFor more than 40 years, geologists tracked the Hayward Fault with a street curb in Hayward. The curb had shifted 8 inches before the city removed it by accident in 2016.
- Tomato season since 1895Fruit packers William and Joseph Hunt, brothers from Sebastopol, opened a Hayward cannery in 1895. They began with local cherries, peaches and apricots, but tomatoes became the main product, and the town smelled of them three months a year. In the 1960s and 1970s Hunt's ran canneries on A, B and C Streets, plus a can company, pickle factory and glass plant. As farms vanished, the canneries closed in 1981. A Hayward-logo water tower marks the site.
- Salt ponds on the bayMuch of Hayward's bay shore was turned into salt evaporation ponds, run by companies such as Oliver Salt and Leslie Salt, and the area became one of the most productive in the world. A 1983 picture of the ponds appeared on a U.S. postage stamp in 2012, and much of that land has since gone back to salt marsh.
- A bridge in 1929The San Mateo-Hayward Bridge opened in 1929 and linked the city to the San Francisco Peninsula. During World War II, Hayward's many Japanese American residents were sent to internment camps, while new factories making war material drew workers who stayed after the war. Builders Oliver Rousseau and David D. Bohannon put up much of the tract housing that followed. California State University, Hayward opened in the hills in 1957, and a second bridge across the bay opened in 1967.
