I used to <br />worry about the quality of their high-density neighborhood near <br />Downtown. As retirees, my parents appreciate that their beloved older <br />neighborhood is aging gracefully. The walking experience has been <br />refreshed by the presence of thriving canopy trees and pretty front yard <br />gardens. <br /> <br />Neighborhoods have blossomed throughout Redwood City over the last <br />20 years, as higher-density housing has been built adjacent to retail <br />centers and infrastructure has been enhanced. Shops offer excellent <br />variety and quality of goods and services to support healthy lifestyles. <br />The shopping centers are more accessible, with strong pedestrian <br />connections to adjacent neighborhoods, and the City continues <br />important investment in local parks and servi",s., <br /> <br />A Bayfront VisitQr's Perspective: <br />2030 <br /> <br />// <br /> <br /> <br />,~, I'm iff" Redwood City's Bay/ront <br />, ;"creeks'i~E sloughs near the Bay.
