Developer suspends plans for roughly 30-story Redwood City tower. "A developer that pitched a roughly 30-story senior housing tower that would have been San Mateo County’s second-tallest building has withdrawn those plans. R&M Properties is the Palo Alto firm behind planned development, which would soar 310 feet over downtown Redwood City at 1800 Broadway and 910 Marshall." (San Francisco Business Times)

More than 800 homes pitched in Pleasanton as city explores major annexation.
