Neighborhood

Marina Bay is an idyllic residential waterfront community in Richmond's protected Inner Harbor. With breathtaking views of the San Francisco skyline and waterfront pathways along the Marina Bay Trail, the neighborhood features an array of retail and dining options. The area is served by a private water taxi service to the San Francisco Ferry Building, with a full WETA Ferry serviced slated to begin in mid-2018.

Founded and incorporated in 1905, Richmond has always been a city with an industrial background. During World War II, Richmond, base of the Kaiser Shipyards, was mainly oriented to shipbuilding. At the end of the war, with several big-name businesses relocating to Richmond, Port Richmond became a major seaport, and is now a significant part of Richmond’s economy. Beginning in the 1980s, in an effort to turn the abandoned shipyards into a residential area, Richmond shifted gears and began focusing on redeveloping the city into a residential and retail friendly environment.

Today, over 100,000 people call Richmond home. The city includes several shopping centers, a bustling downtown area, beautiful parks, including Point Isabel and Miller Knox Regional Park, and the Rosie the Riveter/World War II Home Front National Historical Park.
