Foster City: TVE05 - SR-92 : San Mateo Bridge Substation 4

Foster City occupies the boundary between San Francisco Bay and a network of artificial lagoons in California, a setting that has shaped a planned community built around water. Developed from former bay marshland in the 1960s, it was incorporated in 1971 and named for developer T. Jack Foster. Residential neighborhoods, schools and parks are arranged around the lagoon system, while the shoreline connects with the San Francisco Bay Trail, a regional route following much of the bay’s edge. Its position on the Peninsula places Foster City within the wider Bay Area’s closely connected urban landscape.

California occupies a long Pacific coastal belt in the United States. Its terrain ranges from the Sierra Nevada and the fertile Central Valley to deserts in the southeast and the rugged shores of the Pacific Ocean. The state includes both Mount Whitney, the highest point in the contiguous United States, and extensive protected lands such as Yosemite National Park. California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
