In the 1980s, Ralph Nobles launched an effort to protect the quality of life in his home town, Redwood City. His efforts helped establish Bair Island wildlife preserve. The group he founded was "Friends of Redwood City."

In 2004, he went into action again to protect the community from an out-of-scale skyscraper project on the Redwood City bayfront. That effort gave birth to a group called "People for Housing Not High Rises." That group has now become "Friends of Redwood City," dedicated to supporting actions that enhance our city and continuing to fight against those that don't.

Please feel free to join the discussion!
