Redwood Shores, California
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Redwood Shores is a waterfront neighborhood on the San Francisco Peninsula in California. It is located on the eastern edge of Belmont, but is actually part of incorporated Redwood City.
Redwood Shores is mostly made up of high income single family homes, condos and townhomes. Single family homes tend to sell over a million dollars[1]. Some of the houses by the water have private boating docks.
Redwood Shores was built up from landfill[citation needed] in the marshes of the San Francisco Bay in the 1960s, much like its neighbor on the north side, Foster City. To the south it is bordered by the San Carlos Airport.
From the 1960s to 1980s it was the home of the Marine World/Africa U.S.A., California park, but in 1986 the park moved to Vallejo, California (eventually becoming Six Flags Discovery Kingdom), and the land was occupied by the headquarters of Oracle Corporation.[2] Redwood Shores is also the home to the headquarters of the large video game publisher Electronic Arts (EA).
