Rocks, Gardens, Houses, and a Fountain in Northbrae

This tour will take you inside houses designed by local architects Julia Morgan and Bernard Maybeck, and to the house John Hudson Thomas designed for his own family, to rock walls that were constructed by extraordinary stonemasons, remarkable parks, and by homes of a Holocaust hero, scores of musicians, professors, and scientists. The research that supports this tour and introduces you to the history of Northbrae will be discussed at the talk on September 12. Northbrae is a residential subdivision opened by the Mason-McDuffie Company in 1907. The centerpiece is the Marin Circle and the Bear Fountain.
