redding block 7

Located in the heart of downtown Redding, this project is the first of 10 strategic urban projects within the city of Redding. The ten sites will foreground urban residences, diversify local businesses, increase shade, improve street connectivity, and increase bicycle mobility. The 2-acre site of Block 7 is comprised of three large urban public spaces and two interior courtyards as part of a new affordable and market-rate housing development. The project’s iconic paving and furnishing design are inspired by the regional geology and ecology of Redding. Water misting systems embedded within large boulders will provide a cooling microclimate and comfortable public amenity throughout the year.
