May 7th marked the one year anniversary of the grand opening of the Santa Rosa Cannery in Santa Rosa, California. The project added 129 units ranging from studios to two bedrooms to the area of Santa Rosa. It also created new outdoor space and a new public promenade to connect the Santa Rosa bike and pedestrian path and Historic Railroad Square. The Cannery showcases the thoughtful ways historical elements can be preserved and integrated into new development.

The project maintained the site’s original brick masonry, water tower, and metal canopy, honoring the sites industrial history. We are proud that the project received the Excellence in Construction Award from the North Bay Business Journal and was recognized as the “Best North Bay Residential Project.”

Cheers to Santa Rosa Cannery’s one year old birthday! 🎉

Happy Earth Day from SSDP! 🌎♻️🌋

This year, we’re proud to highlight our Santa Rosa Cannery project, which opened last May. Delivering 129 affordable housing units to the Santa Rosa community in Marin County, the project reflects a commitment to both social impact and environmental responsibility.

Santa Rosa Cannery integrates a range of sustainable strategies, including bioswales and retention basins for effective stormwater management, high-performance insulation across walls, roofs, and windows, and specially designed green spaces featuring native, drought-tolerant landscaping.

On Earth Day, we celebrate projects like this that demonstrate how design can support both people and the planet.
