Yes, the Marin Civic Center in Terra Linda is what I'm referring to.

Edit: above said "next door" so I'm curious how literal they meant this

Literally next door. Maybe one other building between Autodesk and the Bay Model.

When I started in 1990, most of engineering at Autodesk was in 2320 and 2330 Marinship Way in Sausalito. Later I moved down the street across from Mollie Stone in 3 Harbor. The infamous every-Friday "Beer Bust" was in 1 Harbor during those years.

Ted Nelson had a house boat not far way, too. Wild times.

A few years later we moved up to the new HQ on McInnis Parkway in San Rafael. We also had several buildings on Civic Center Drive and several floors of 4000 on top of the hill. I think I had an office in all of those at one time or another except the HQ building -- I managed to escape that and the new fangled "open office space" they put in that one.
