Redlands, California, is a small
city of 64,000 residents that sits nestled at the foot of Southern
California’s highest mountains, halfway between Los Angeles
and Palm Springs—a place Theodore Roosevelt once called “a
sight for the gods.”
Redlands was named by Frank E. Brown,
a civil engineer, and E. G. Judson, a New York stock broker, who
met in Southern California in the late 1870s. They called the town
“Redlands” after the color of the adobe soil.
Redlands’ weather is ideal
for growing exceptional oranges, which is why Redlands has been
called “the Navel Orange Capital of the World.” The
city is home to two museums; a 14-screen, stadium seating movie
theater; a live theatre; the summer Redlands Bowl, which brings
in performers from around the world; and numerous restaurants and
hotels. It also hosts—every Thursday evening—a festival
of entertainment and food called Market Night.
