Meredith Neil Murray Turnbull Aaron Levine Seymour Lutzky PLEASE NOTE: Some pages may have indistinct print. Filmed as received. University Microfilms, A Xerox Education Company iii PREFACE Marin County has been written about as a place where charming Indian legends abound, where misty beauty evokes a breathless appreciation of natural wonders, where tales of the sea are told around cozy hearths, and where nostalgia for the old California of Mexican hidalgos and an exotic array of inter­ national characters finds responsive audience. Even today the primary interests of Marin chroniclers center on old settlers, their lives and their fortunes, and the exotic polyglot of ethnic groups that came to populate the shores of the waters that wash Marin. This effort to analyze by example some of the social processes of Marin is in large part an introductory effort.

  • Project Overview
    Project Overview 2. PROJECT OVERVIEW 2.1 Introduction LOCATION & EXISTING BUILDINGS The Marin County Civic Center is located in the City of San Rafael, east of Highway 101 and twenty miles north of San Francisco. The approximately one hundred and sixty acre site is varied in type and form. Gallinas Creek runs along the northern end of the campus and links to wetlands that lead eastward to the bay. The southern end of the site is an oak woodland landscape of rolling hills, mature trees, and seasonal grasses. The San Pedro ridge frames the site to the southeast. Marin County Civic Center - 1970 The fi rst major civic structure built on site was the four story Administration Building which was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright before his death in 1959. The building was completed under the direction of architects William Wesley Peters and Aaron Green of the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation in 1962. The second structure at the Civic Center, the fi ve story Hall of Justice, was completed in 1970. The U.S. Post Offi ce was also designed by Wright and completed in 1962. The site hosts other structures as well. The General Services Building along Highway 101 was completed in 1971. The Marin Veterans’ Memorial Auditorium was designed by William Wesley Peters and Aaron Green, the same architectural heritage as the Administration Building and the Hall of Justice, and completed in 1971. The Exhibit Hall was designed by the Taliesin Associated Architects, led by Anthony Puttnam and was completed in 1976.
