Storia

Nel 1908, un gruppo di donne locali protestarono per il dumping della spazzatura di Berkeley nella loro comunità. Armate di due fucili a canna liscia e un fucile ventidue calibro, affrontarono i conducenti dei carri nei pressi di quello che oggi è l'angolo tra la San Pablo Avenue e Buchanan Street. Le donne dissero ai conducenti dei carri di spazzatura trainati dai cavalli di tornare a casa, e loro lo fecero in modo rapido e senza lamentarsi. Poco dopo, i residenti della città votarono per l'incorporazione come City of Ocean View. Nel 1909, gli elettori cambiarono il nome della città, in primo luogo per distinguerla dalla sezione adiacente della città di Berkeley che in precedenza si chiamava Ocean View. Con 38 voti a favore e 6 contro, la città è stata rinominata così in onore di Albany nello Stato di New York, il luogo di nascita del primo sindaco della città, Frank Roberts.[1]
