“TAMALPAIS VALLEY: The Era of Constant Change” with Lissa McKee
Following up on historian Lissa McKee’s engaging presentation last spring about Tam Valley history from the 19th century Mexican land grants to the early twentieth century, she will continue with information and historical photos describing the community’s ongoing evolution during the 20th century. She will focus in particular on the 1940’s to 1960’s. when so many changes and threats to the Valley were occurring, including the creation of the Kay Park and Crest Marin developments, the building of Tam Valley School, the establishment of the Tamalpais Sanitary District, the opening of the Community Center, the proposed city of Marincello, the launch of the Rhubarb Revue, the repeated flooding of the Crest Marin and Kay Park neighborhoods with their required evacuations, the proposal to build a four-lane highway through the Valley and so much more!
