All,

I found this interesting paragraph while reading over the history of RWC.
From the page on

http://www.ci.redwood-city.ca.us/about/local_history/exhibits/redwood_city/r
wc_history.html

"The San Francisco earthquake of 1906 displaced thousands of people, and
Redwood City welcomed them with open arms. Real estate companies sprang up
overnight, much like the shipping industry had fifty years before. Many of
the large estates west of El Camino were subdivided and homes were
constructed on smaller lots."
