THE RANDALL @ MILL DISTRICT Eden Housing & Replay Destinations

Healdsburg, California Affordable Housing

With the relocation of a lumber mill, a 9.6-acre site in downtown Healdsburg is transforming into Mill District, a new community with mixed-income housing, a hotel, community amenities, and public open space. The Randall is a publicly-funded, 100% affordable housing project contributing to this larger development.

While meeting the specific needs of resident households, The Randall extends the design vocabulary of the larger neighborhood, reflecting a grandeur and scale of vintage multifamily housing while capturing the utilitarian qualities of agricultural and industrial buildings. Family-sized two- and three-bedroom units are concentrated on the lower floors, allowing children easy access to outdoor play areas, the communal front porch, and garden. The ground floor also houses resident amenities including a lobby, management offices, a community room with kitchen, tuck-under parking, and a bike room. Rooftop solar panels are positioned as a modern ‘cornice,’ with translucent outer edges casting dappled shadows to match those of the patio trellises and trained vines Outdoor spaces, including a barbecue area, a vegetable garden, and smaller landscaped spaces and swales, are punctuated by a distinctive industrial piece preserved from the site’s earlier use as a mill.
