A

s the last commissioned work by famed architect Frank Lloyd Wright, the Civic Center was the only government project he designed. Sadly, Wright didn’t see the completed building, as he died in 1959, before the project was finished. Visitors can take in an array of extraordinary design features at this national and state historic landmark. The beauty of the building belies the controversy that preceded its construction. Get to know more of the architect and his building by taking a 90 minute docent-led tour every Wednesday or Friday at 10:30am. Tours leave from the second floor Café, Room 23, at 3501 Civic Center Drive.

3501 Civic Center Drive, San Rafael, CA
