Redwood City considers 21-story tower to serve older residents
"The Redwood City Council on Monday reviewed a proposal for a 21-story tower that, if approved, would be one of the Peninsula's tallest buildings and serve the fast-growing 55-and-older market in the Bay Area. The proposed 222-unit apartment building, known as 910 Marshall and located in downtown Redwood City, would nearly match the height of South San Francisco's Genesis North Tower."
"The project, led by Palo Alto-based R&M Properties, would include 188 market-rate independent living units and 34 assisted living and memory care units. No affordable units are currently planned and pricing has not been finalized. Amenities include a theater, fitness and yoga facilities, a pool, salon, library, community rooms, and on-site dining with a bar and lounge. According to 2025 U.S. Census Bureau data, the region's senior population is growing rapidly, while youth and middle-aged populations are stagnant or declining in some Bay Area counties."
The 910 Marshall proposal would build a 21-story, 222-unit apartment tower in downtown Redwood City targeting the 55-and-older market. The project would contain 188 market-rate independent living units and 34 assisted living and memory care units, with amenities including a theater, fitness and yoga facilities, a pool, salon, library, community rooms, and on-site dining with a bar and lounge. No affordable units are currently planned and pricing is not finalized. Councilmembers were divided over the proposed height and neighborhood impact. R&M Properties seeks an exemption from an 8-story height limit to provide more senior residences as regional senior populations grow. San Mateo County data shows more than 18% of residents are over 65, while 2025 Census data indicates seniors are increasing as youth and middle-age groups stagnate or decline in some counties.
