On this site, in 1903, H.H. Noble, President of the Northern California Power Co., built a summer home using native rock from this bluff. The bungalow was destroyed by forest fire in 1917.

The nearby forebay lakes serving Volta Power House were named for his daughters Nora and Grace. H.H. Noble sold his company to Pacific Gas and Electric in 1919.

H.H. Noble was born in Fairfield , Maine, August 16, 1844, and died in San Francisco Dec. 17, 1929.

Marker can be reached from Alward Way.
