'''People's Park''' in [[Berkeley, California]] is a park located off [[Telegraph Avenue]], bounded by Haste and Bowditch streets and Dwight Way, near the [[University of California, Berkeley]].

While legally the land is the property of the University of California, People's Park has operated since the early 1970s as a free [[public park]]. Although open to all, it is often viewed as a daytime sanctuary for Berkeley's low income and large [[Homelessness|homeless]] population who, along with others, receive meals from [[East Bay (California)|East Bay]] [[Food Not Bombs]]. Nearby residents, and those who try to use the park for recreation, sometimes experience conflict with the homeless people.<ref name=tempest2006 /><ref name="Meyers"/><ref name="wagner2008"/><ref name="gross2009"/>

 

In 1956, the [[Regents of the University of California|Regents]] of the [[University of California]] allocated a {{convert|2.8|acre|m2|adj=on}} plot of land containing residences for future development into student housing, parking, and offices as part of the university's "Long Range Development Plan." At the time, public funds were lacking to buy the land, and the plan was shelved until June 1967, when the university acquired $1.3 million to acquire the land through the process of [[eminent domain]]. The short-term goal was to create athletic fields with student housing being a longer-range goal.<ref name=Brenneman1>
