I lived there from 1954 to 1960 as a kid from birth to 6 years old.
my mom was the assistant for Dr. Wilson who's office was right next to Fishermans Warf when it was a real Warf for the boats, before all of the resteraunts and tourist stuff was built.
I would walk down the Warf and watch the fishing boat crews repair their nets and work on their boats. Nobody bothered me.
There were Beatnicks then.
It was a really clean place to live back then.
Actually, I was living in San Anselmo, but from the age of 4 to 6 years old, my mom would take me to her office sometimes for the day and I'd just sit on the dock of the bay with a fishing pole I'd been given and while away the hours. Never fell into the water.
Now it's a third world slum full of crime and pestilence.
A major earthquake there might be the start of turning the area around again once it's rebuilt.
