The Northwestern Pacific railroad corridor serves as the industrial spine for this mid-century look at Marin County, tracing a route through the marshlands of the Petaluma River and Novato Creek. While the established center of Novato shows its grid near the Marion Ave School, the surrounding hillsides and valleys remain defined by institutional sites and rural ranchlands. Large landholdings like the Big Rock Ranch sit in the westward canyons, while the southeastern landscape is marked by the St Vincent School and the Marin County Hospital.
