Just a small corner on a street in Tiburon. Hard to park at. Tiny tiny spot. Can see better downtown in many locations...

This is a tiny mini-park that was built as the gatehouse-like office of the original real estate developer of the area. Its a great place to enjoy and photograph the views of Raccoon Strait, SF Bay, and the Golden Gate Bridge. Theres a bench for seating, an historical plaque, and room for parking bikes, but its too open for shelter in a rainstorm. (The stone arch over the roadway was removed long ago.)Local auto parking is tight, dont park on private property next door -- park instead about 6 houses away in public parking across from the Caprice restaurant or along Mar West Street & enjoy the walk.

It is a tower to go to look out to Angel Island or at the sea. You can ride a bike, which we used an electric bike, or a car, or walk, or whatever. It wasnt much, but it was a good selfie spot, especially with my friends.
