New Sequoia Theater Building
AKA Fox Theater Building
2211-2235 Broadway
Redwood City
The New Sequoia Theater, designed by Reid and Reid Architects of San Francisco
with a Gothic Revival exterior and a Moorish interior, opened on January 5, 1929.
Although designed primarily for motion pictures, the theater had a pipe organ and
a stage for Vaudeville. Additional glamour was provided by the projection of moving clouds
and stars on the ceiling.
In October 1929, Fox West Coast purchased the theater and continued to
operate it as a movie theater. The theater changed owners in 1998, and after interior
renovation it reopened in 2002 as the Fox and the Little Fox.
