Description
Frank Lloyd Wright emphasized his theory of organic architecture in his design of the Marin Civic Center in an attempt to integrate the long, horizontal buildings into the rolling hills. The Hall of Justice was begun in 1966 and completed in 1969. William Wesley Peters and Aaron Green, proteges of Frank Lloyd Wright, oversaw its construction. The Marin County Civic Center is a national and state designated historic landmark.
