Help Us Save Our Sausalito Historic District

The massive scale overwhelms our historic district.
Looking Ahead in 2026: The Fight Continues—and We're Ready
As we kick off 2026, we want to share what’s on the horizon—and why your continued engagement will be more critical than ever.
2025 proved that strategic advocacy works. We removed Sausalito from SB 79, secured comprehensive view protections, and strengthened Historic District safeguards. Now we need to defend those victories while tackling new challenges that could reshape our town.
The work ahead requires resources, expertise, and sustained community support. Please consider donating now to fund our upcoming work in 2026.

Join the 2,200 People Who Have Signed the Petition to Oppose this Flawed Project
It includes 51 ultra high-end units—and just 8 tiny, substandard “affordable” units crammed against the hillside facing a retaining wall. A travesty pretending to meet housing needs.
If approved, it sets a precedent for more oversized towers and the end of our Historic District.
Stand with us. Sign the petition. Stop this project before it’s too late.

Save Our Sausalito Biologist Identifies Habitat of Special Species on Bridgeway Site
Protect the Princess Grove Habitat
The current Bridgeway proposal would clear-cut what has become known as the Princess Grove, a grove of eleven trees, including magnificent coast live oaks standing 45-feet tall and likely almost a century old.
A study by renowned biologist Dr. Shawn Smallwood showed that Princess Grove hosts special-status species including the great horned owl, Allen’s hummingbird and red-shouldered hawk.
The glass in the structure would result in an estimated 147 annual bird-window collision deaths, according to the report.
Best-Selling Author Amy Tan Speaks Out on Project’s Threat to Local Birds
“This proposed building is an eyesore that would damage the unique beauty of our town. Its expanse of glass windows reflecting the bay would lure birds that would be killed by colliding into what appears to be sky. These high-end residences would also be lit at night and attract and kill migrating birds. Sausalito is the varied habitat for hundreds of species of birds that are both year-round residents and visiting fall migrants from September – April.
As a board member of American Bird Conservancy and a Sausalito homeowner whose backyard has been visited by 66 species of birds, I voice my strong objection to this proposed building detrimental to both our town’s historic character and its wildlife.”

This Project Doesn’t Belong in the Historic District
One million people visit Sausalito’s Historic District every year. It is one of only twelve certified historic districts in all of California.
It is a treasured and much-loved resource as well as an economic engine of the community.
The State of California acclaimed the district’s commercial architecture as some of the most notable of its time period.
