The Sausalito Historical Society is holding an Open House at the Ice House (at the corner of Bridgeway and Bay Street downtown) on:

We'll be displaying plans for the proposed Ice House Plaza, the new multi-use open space designed for the public to mingle and learn more about Sausalito's rich history. 

The design was created by a panel of Sausalito architects, landscape architects, designers and planners.  The mature Canary Island pines on the site will be pruned to open up views of the bay and native plantings will screen views of the adjoining parking lot.

The plaza will also serve as an outdoor classroom for the acclaimed local history curriculum provided to all third grade classes at the Sausalito Marin City School District.  The students will see native plants used by the Miwok Indians for food and medicine, and search for historic "artifacts" imbedded in the seats and pavement.

The Planning Commission is scheduled to consider these plans at their February 3 meeting.

For further information, please call the Sausalito Historical Society at 415-289-4117.
