The community will offer a Zendo for meditation, healthy dining options, and will focus on living lightly on the land, while contributing widely to the greater Healdsburg community. Enso Village will offer 221 independent living residences and 54 support facilities for memory care and assisted living, set among rolling hills in wine country. The community will also include a comprehensive water conservation strategy and will achieve greenhouse gas emissions targets that are significantly better than city standards. When completed, Enso Village will exceed the LEED Gold Standard for energy efficiency and construction materials, will be nearly 100% electric and participate in renewable energy programs, and will immediately generate about 75 kilowatts of electricity from on-site solar. The beam was then transported to the site located in north Healdsburg, and carefully lifted into place atop the last of the steel construction buildings. "Having the construction team share in this milestone, while navigating these tours with insights on the care that has gone into this project is truly remarkable, and one of the many reasons why I feel incredibly lucky to be a part of this team."Ī beam was placed outside the Enso Village Preview Center for attendees to sign in commemoration of the completion of this part of the construction phase. "The beam signing was the first time that future residents of Enso Village had a chance to gather and tour the property, to truly experience the start of their future homes" said Rosemary Jordan, CEO of Enso Village. We foresee the future of communities like these as one that reaches higher than needs-based care, toward an innovative culture authentically grown and fully lived." Enso Village's transformational, person-centered approach is a crucial next step to not only hear, but meet, those shifting needs and aspirations. More and more, aging individuals are making it clear – through their words, actions and resources – that their needs are changing.
Sean Kelly, CEO of The Kendal Corporation, said of the new community, "This is a pioneering opportunity.
As we toured the site with many of our future residents, they could feel the power of seeing this dream take shape and becoming a reality." It is exciting to begin to include our future residents in this collaboration and celebrate the excellent work of our construction team. "We enjoy a harmonious relationship with Healdsburg city staff and planning commission members. "San Francisco Zen Center and Kendal are both over 50 years old and share a commitment to deep listening and active collaboration," said Susan O'Connell, Spiritual Director for Enso Village.
