Rivers run through it
Rivers certainly do run in this Pittsburg neighborhood. In fact, the area is sometimes referred to as “The Gateway to the Delta” because it’s located near the convergence of the San Joaquin and Sacramento Rivers. And while the waterfront views are certainly one of the neighborhood’s strong features, River Run also has places to grab comfort food, parks for every kind of activity and a funky mix of architecture across its homes. Jason Dominguez, a Pittsburg native and Realtor with Blue Line Real Estate, speaks warmly of the community surrounding the neighborhood and beyond. "It's very multicultural and tight-knit. When I grew up, everybody looked out for everybody and it still feels like that. You go to the store and you’re bound to run into somebody you know."

You can dislike your neighbors and you're still going to cheer alongside them at a Pirates game," he says.
