 San Rafael  See map

Local jazz artist, Deborah Winters most recent CD release, “Lovers After All” will be featured in this evening's show. Deborah traverses the vast expanse of jazz history – from the 40s to the present – from some of the best-loved standards to rarely heard gems. In choosing the songs hear on her CD “Lovers After All”recording, she sought out jazz composers whose pieces provided the ideal platform to showcase her extraordinary versatility and her trademark feeling of intimacy.

Dr. Herb Wong, who wrote the liner notes for “Lovers After All”, expressed the following: "A strong singer deserves due attention and recognition. Deborah Winters is an easy nominee for one of the coveted seats. Her sensational attributes on this CD speak with convincing eloquence and a soulful jazz-spirited attitude.” 

Deborah also mesmerized a sold out crowd of over 300 guests (standing room only after having to turn away almost 50 more at the door) at 142 Throckmorton Theatre in Mill Valley, December 3rd at her CD Release Concert.

Deborah Winters' CD entitled "Lovers After All" is doing very well and is increasing in rotation on radio stations across the country. The buzz is there and everyone wants to know "what's next?".

It would be nice if the comments section had "Thumbs up / Thumbs down" like the PressRead More Democrat.

Check with the San Rafael planning commission and get the low-down on why they turned down aRead More developer who submitted his plans to demolish and rebuild a mixed commercial/residential building at 2nd and B. That's directly across the street from SVDP, and a notorious loitering spot. It's currently a run-down box building that's long past its prime. The developer came in with a beautiful plan, and it was denied for, among other things, because it was not in keeping with the "Victorian era" of the others, and because the city was afraid people would store their bikes on the balconies. Take a look at it. It's the most run-down corner in the downtown area. A great way for a small town to thrive and achieve an identity, is to get people living there. The city makes it extremely difficult with their rigid design board, and archaic operations that remind me of private industry in the 70s. Oh, and then they approved Target - completely disregarding the data from our neighbors up north, as well as other small towns.

Tim, I am aware of many who want to increase the housing density downtown. I am also aware thereRead More has been objections particularly around the bus and future SMART station. It seems having commercial use at street level and housing above is favored by the city. It would definitely help bring people downtown. Other elements besides safety, includes maintenance, on going activities and marketing. I made reference to Healdsburg which is a good case study. They endorsed a study by urban planners around 1990. It took until 2000 when Hotel Healdsburg opened and then the downtown took off. They have one big asset and that is their city park which is where they have ongoing activities. Public Spaces such as this offer a sense of place and acts as a magnet. If you go two or three block away from the park, Healdsburg is just another sleepy little town of 11,000. Sure the wine country is a tourist attraction, but according to the County Visitor's Bureau Marin has 12 million visitors a year who enjoy our natural environment and 80% leave and go elsewhere in the evening.

Thank you all for your interest in this topic. Scott, are you aware of any new multifamily or mixedRead More use housing in downtown on the horizon? Someone in another article mentioned the need for greater density in the downtown area. It seems like greater density could make San Rafael a more attractive place to bring business. Maybe it's me being optimistic, but certain areas seem ripe for development which could be a catalyst for improving downtown. Just curious if others had any perspective of this issue.
