Eureka, California City of Eureka Aerial view: Eureka on Humboldt Bay Aerial view: Eureka on Humboldt Bay Official seal of Eureka, California Eureka shown inside Humboldt Countyin the State of California Eureka shown inside Humboldt County Eureka, California is positioned in the US Eureka, California - Eureka, California Eureka (Hupa: do'-wi-lotl-ding' Karuk: uuth) is the principal town/city and governmental center of county of Humboldt County in the Redwood Empire region of California.

Route 101 on the shores of Humboldt Bay, 270 miles (430 km) north of San Francisco and 100 miles (160 km) south of the Oregon border. At the 2010 census, the populace of the town/city was 27,191, and the populace of Greater Eureka was 45,034. Eureka is the biggest coastal town/city between San Francisco and Portland, and the westernmost town/city of more than 25,000 inhabitants in the 48 adjoining states. It is the county-wide center for government, community care, trade, and the arts on the North Coast north of the San Francisco Bay Area.

Greater Eureka, one of California's primary commercial fishing ports, is the locale of the biggest deep-water port between San Francisco and Coos Bay, a stretch of about 500 miles (800 km). The command posts of both the Six Rivers National Forest and the North Coast Redwoods District of the California State Parks System are in Eureka.

As entrepot for hundreds of lumber mills that once existed in the area, the town/city played a dominant role in the historic West Coast lumber trade.

The entire town/city is a state historic landmark, which has hundreds of momentous Victorian homes, including the nationally recognized Carson Mansion, and the town/city has retained its initial 19th-century commercial core as a nationally recognized Old Town Historic District. Eureka is home to California's earliest zoo, the Sequoia Park Zoo. Eureka's Pacific coastal locale on Humboldt Bay, adjoining to abundant redwood forests, provided the reason for settlement of this 19th-century seaport town.

The Wiyot citizens lived in Jaroujiji (Wiyot: "where you sit and rest"), now known as Eureka, for thousands of years before to European arrival.

The Wiyot are especially known for their basketry and fishery management. An extensive compilation of intricate basketry of the area's indigenous groups exists in the Clarke Historical Museum in Old Town Eureka.

A Humboldt Bay (Woodley Island) view of Indian Island (both inside the town/city limits) and the memorial to fisherman For nearly 300 years after 1579, European exploration of the coast of what would turn into northern California repeatedly missed definitively locating Humboldt Bay due to a combination of geographic features and weather conditions which concealed the narrow bay entrance from view.

Even with a well-documented 1806 sighting by Russian explorers, the bay was not definitively known by Europeans until an 1849 overland exploration provided a reliable accounting of the exact locale of what is the second biggest bay in California. The timing of this discernment would lead to the May 13, 1850 beginning of the settlement of Eureka on its shore by the Union and Mendocino Exploring (development) companies. After the major California Gold Rush in the Sierras, Humboldt Bay was settled with the intent of providing a convenient alternative to the long overland route from Sacramento to supply miners on the Trinity, Klamath and Salmon Rivers where gold had been identified.

Although the ideal locale on Humboldt Bay adjoining to naturally deeper shipping channels ultimately guaranteed Eureka's evolution as the major city on the bay, Arcata's adjacency to developing supply lines to inland gold mines ensured supremacy over Eureka through 1856. "Eureka" received its name from a Greek word meaning "I have found it!" This exuberant statement of prosperous (or hopeful) gold rush miners is also the official Motto of the State of California.

Eureka is the only U.S.

Location to use the same seal as the state for its seal. In the United States, Eureka, California is the biggest of about a dozen suburbs and metros/cities dating from the mid-nineteenth century that share the name Eureka. Records of early forays into the bay in 1806 reported that the violence of the small-town indigenous citizens made it nearly impossible for landing parties to survey the area. After 1850, Europeans ultimately overwhelmed the Wiyot, whose maximum populace before the Europeans was in the hundreds in the region of what would turn into the county's major city.

The 1860 Wiyot Massacre took place on Indian Island in the spring of 1860, committed by a group of locals, thought to be primarily Eureka businessmen. The chronicle of the behavior of European pioneer toward the indigenous cultures locally and throughout America is presented in detail in the Fort Humboldt State Historic Park exhibition, on the southern edge of the city. Mill yard athwart the bay from Eureka Eureka's first postal service opened in 1853 just as the town began to carve its grid pattern into the edge of a forest it would ultimately consume to feed the building of San Francisco and beyond.

By 1854, after only four years since the founding, seven of nine mills refining timber into marketable lumber on Humboldt Bay were inside Eureka. A year later 140 lumber schooners directed in and out of Humboldt Bay moving lumber from the mills to booming metros/cities along the Pacific coast. By the time the charter for Eureka was granted in 1856, busy mills inside the town/city had a daily manufacturing capacity of 220,000 board feet. This level of production, which would expanded decidedly and continue for more than a century secured Eureka as the "timber capital" of California.

Eureka was at the apex of rapid expansion of the lumber trade due to its placement between huge coast redwood forests and its control of the major port facilities.

After the early 1900s shipment of products occurred by trucks, trains, and ships from Eureka, Humboldt Bay, and other points in the region, but Eureka would remain the busy center of all this activeness for over 120 years.

These factors and the rest made Eureka a momentous city in early California state history. The Carson Mansion (1886) in Eureka's Old Town The representation of these homes in Eureka grouped with those in close-by Arcata and the Victorian village of Ferndale are of considerable importance to the overall evolution of Victorian architecture assembled in the nation.

Old Town Eureka, the initial downtown center of this busy town/city in the 19th Century, has been restored and has turn into a lively arts center. The Old Town region has been declared an Historic District by the National Register of Historic Places.

The precinct is made up of over 150 buildings, which in total represents much of Eureka's initial 19th-century core commercial center.

Eureka's beginning and livelihood was and remains linked to Humboldt Bay, the Pacific Ocean, and related industries, especially fishing.

Salmon fisheries sprang up along the Eel River as early as 1851, and inside seven years 2,000 barrels of cured fish and 50,000 pounds (23,000 kg) of smoked salmon were processed and shipped out of Humboldt Bay annually from refining plants on Eureka's wharf. In 1858 the first of many ships assembled in Eureka was launched beginning an trade that spanned scores of years.

Eureka is the home port to more than 100 fishing vessels (with an all-time high of over 400 in 1981) in two undivided marinas which can berth approximately 400 boats inside the town/city limits of Eureka and at least 50 more in close-by Fields Landing, which is part of Greater Eureka.

Area catches historically include, among other species, salmon, tuna, Dungeness crab, and shrimp, with historic annual total fishing landings totaling about 36,000,000 pounds (16,000,000 kg) in 1981 Humboldt State University docks its own vessel, a floating classroom, at Woodley Island Marina, which is Eureka's biggest marina. In February 1885, the ethnic tension in Eureka broke when Eureka City Councilman David Kendall was caught in the crossfire of two rival Chinese gangs and killed.

This led to the convening of 600 Eureka men and resulted in the forcible permanent expulsion of all 480 Chinese inhabitants of Eureka's Chinatown. The expelled Chinese unsuccessfully attempted to sue for damages.

It also provided the first safe territory route between San Francisco and Eureka for citizens to venture to the Redwood Empire without risking their lives on ships.

As a direct result, Eureka's populace of 7,300 swelled to 15,000 inside ten years.

By 1922 the Redwood Highway was completed, providing for the first reliable, direct overland route for automobiles from San Francisco. By 1931 the Eureka Street Railway directed fifteen streetcars over twelve miles of track. Eureka's transit connection to the "outside" world had changed dramatically after more than half a century of stage rides or treacherous steamship passage through the Humboldt Bar and on the Pacific Ocean to San Francisco.

The building of the Eureka Inn coincided with the opening of the new road to San Francisco.

As a result of immense civic pride amid this early 20th Century era of expansion, Eureka officially nicknamed itself "Queen City of the Ultimate West." The tourism industry, lodging to support it, and related marketing had been born. The United States Navy directed a Naval Auxiliary Air Facility for blimps at Eureka amid World War II. The timber economy of Eureka is part of the Pacific Northwest timber economy which rises and falls with boom and bust economic times. During the 1970s Eureka fishermen, landed more than half of fish and shellfish produced and consumed in California. In 2010 between 100 and 120 commercial fishing vessels listed Eureka as homeport. The highest landings of all species were 36.9 million pounds in 1981 while the lowest were in 2001 with 9.4 million pounds. Species composition shifts amid this time with groundfish going down and whiting and crab catches increasing. After 1990 regulatory, economic and other affairs led to a contraction of the small-town commercial fleet. In 1991, the Woodley Island marina opened, providing docking facilities for much of Eureka's commercial and recreational fleet. Many species are considered to be overfished. Recreational fishing has increased over time.

Commercial Pacific oyster aquaculture in Humboldt Bay produced an average of 7,600,000 pounds (3,400,000 kg) of oysters from 1956 to 1965 an average of 844,444 pounds (383,033 kg) per year.

In 2004, only 600,000 pounds (270,000 kg) were harvested. Oysters and oyster seed continue to be exported from Humboldt Bay. The value of the oysters and spawn is more than $6 million a year. Consolidation of buyers and landing facilities resulted in small-town vulnerability to unexpected affairs, dominant the City to obtain grant funding for and complete the Fishermen's Terminal on the waterfront which will furnish fish handling, marketing, and enhance spaces. Numerous natural gas leaks occurred, but no fires resulted. This was the biggest recent earthquake since the April 25 26, 1992 sequence. It was followed on February 4, 2010, by a magnitude 5.9 earthquake which hit at 12:20 pm (local time) about 35 miles (56 km) northwest of the improve of Petrolia and nearly 50 miles (80 km) west of Eureka.
