The downtown Marriott now has a large mural by Illuminaries advertising many of Oakland's sights. If you look carefully you'll see the Oakland oak tree logo, iconic buildings, a giraffe from the zoo, a BART train, logos of our pro sports teams, and a reference to Lake Merritt, the Black Panthers, and the Dragon School muralists. The Marriott also houses the training facility for the Golden State Warriors, who will now battle it out with the Cleveland Cavaliers for the NBA championship. This is the third year in a row these two teams have faced each other for the top title. Go Warriors!!
