"The newest building in downtown San Rafael is
revolutionary. The Rafael Town Center project, in Marin County's largest
city, is an example of 'smart growth' -- the notion that new housing and
jobs should fold back into existing communities."
John King, San Francisco Chronicle Urban Design Writer
The Town Center complex covers nearly an
acre on Fourth Street, in the heart of San Rafael's downtown. Besides
the 113 apartments, it includes eight retail spaces and, along Fifth
Street, 40,000 square feet of office space.
