Point Tiburon Palm Tree
1 review for Point Tiburon Palm Tree
A PALM TREE!
Yes, it's JUST A PALM, but it signifies so much more.
This PALM represents the history, culture and liveliness of this little town. It is located where the main buildings and passenger depots were located for the NORTHWEST PACIFIC RAILROAD Tiburon termination.
The NWPRR was noted for its beautiful gardens and giant palm trees surrounding its buildings. Although those buildings, and the NWP Railroad in Tiburon, are long gone now or have been turned into other businesses, this one Palm Tree remains as evidence of this rich railroad past.
In 1988 the Town of Tiburon's Heritage & Arts Commission placed a plack here as a reminder of the rich railroading history that helped form this little community.
There's hardly a photograph of Tiburon that doesn't include this GLORIOUS PALM at the end of Tiburon Boulevard!
The BIRTH YEAR of the planting of this tree was 1923.
Will you be here to help celebrate it's 100th birthday?
Come see it TODAY - Have your picture taken with history!
