Character Area 10: Riverview Estates
        Riverview Estates is a small Character Area located in the southern
        portion of Healdsburg, bordered by Kennedy Lane to the east,
        Character Area 3 to the south, commercial development to the
        west and north.

        Currently, Character Area 10 is a mobile home park to the west
        of the Russian River. It is expected that Riverview Estates will
        continue to be a mobile home park for the foreseeable future.
        The two rural residential parcels to the south of the mobile home
        total approximately 2 acres and could be redeveloped with
        additional single-family homes. Riverview Estates should strive to
        establish a pedestrian-oriented and attractive street edge along
        Kennedy Lane leading into the development. This could include
        orienting buildings to the street and creating visual and physical
        connections between the building entry and the public realm.
        New construction in this Character Area should maximize views
        of the Russian River. Design guidelines in Chapter 5 provide more
        information regarding these topics for single-family development
        proposals.



























        Current development along Kennedy Lane is shown above. In the future,
        an active, pedestrian-friendly street edge should be established along
        Kennedy Lane.
