The Redwood City area now referred to as Redwood Shores is a 1,500-acre piece of land surrounded by Highway 101 on the west and San Francisco Bay on the east. Redwood City accepted the proposal from the Leslie Properties, Inc., to annex Redwood Shores and in 1963 unveiled a proposal for a planned community, modeled after Foster City, of housing, parks, and commercial sites, to be built at Redwood Shores. Redwood Shores combines residential, commercial and service industries while experiencing growth in computer and internet companies as Silicon Valley moves north.
