The San Diego Housing Federation scheduled an Oct. 23 tour of Kimball Highland in National City to examine how affordable-housing design responds to financial, policy and community constraints. The morning program was part of its Fundamentals of Affordable Housing series, presented by San Diego Habitat for Humanity. Federation event notice
The planned 8:30–11:30 a.m. visit at 1221 D Avenue featured the Community HousingWorks development. Participants were to hear from the project team about planning, approvals, construction and lessons from occupancy.
The federation described Kimball Highland's broader master plan as combining affordable homes with health services, transportation access and community amenities. It identified family and senior housing, a federally qualified health center and a Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly center as components.
The tour was framed as a working case study, with guided viewing and discussion of design tradeoffs.
