ROSE WAVE 
COLIN LAMBERT & PETER ADAMS, 2007

This sculpture honors the Gill Family rose nursery that operated 
during the late 19th to early 20th century in the area extending west 
from San Pablo Avenue to Ocean View Park. It also honors the original 
name of the City of Albany, which was Ocean View. The name was 
changed to Albany when it was learned that the name Ocean View 
had been used elsewhere in California.
