In 1945 Ramshackle houseboats were built from old shipping parts when the World War II shipbuilding operation Marinship closed, and Sausalito's northern waterfront suddenly became available.
By
the 1950s, Sausalito's community of floating homes and its celebrated
counter-culture movement was thriving. Acid-trip parties, impromptu
poetry readings and music jams were all part of this
water-bound neighborhood.
Today, the community is far more eclectic
with artists and writers sharing the docks with physicians, lawyers and
executives.
Multi-million-dollar custom dream homes rock next to former
Navy ships converted into functional dwellings with loads of character.
