"The false-front store facades, the Mission Revival style church and City Hall, the early Queen Anne Victorians and the Blue Rock Inn, all evoke the flavor of the City's past. Larkspur's downtown has been designated a State and City Historic District and is officially listed on the National Register of Historic Places because it is "typical of a small California town at the turn of the century." The buildings along the street between the Lark Theater and the Lark Creek Inn are unique because they are examples of historic commercial architecture of the 1890's, early 1900s, 1920s, and 1930s."
