Wednesday evening, Occupy Oakland protesters returned to Frank Ogawa Plaza for a relatively peaceful rally and march. Most of the anticipated action was in San Francisco, where a clash with police never materialized.
On Thursday morning, two tents were pitched on the square in from of City Hall at 14th Street and Broadway
9:20 a.m.: Two tents and fence `sculpture' on Oakland plaza
Two tents remain on the plaza after the previous night's rally. About a dozen people camped overnight, it appears without city intervention.
What's really attracting attention is a stack of cyclone fence, the remnants of a barrier that had been erected around the lawn area but was torn down by protesters. The stack of fencing resembles a sculpture and many people are walking up to take pictures of it. A police officer just went over to snap a shot as well.
