Unique temporary housing design to look and feel permanent

AHBL provided civil engineering and landscape architecture, for Cosecha Court II Phase Two, and civil engineering and landscape architecture services for Phase Three of the Cosecha Court housing project. Owned and operated by the Yakima Housing Authority (YHA), Cosecha Court II is a seasonal family farmworker housing development. The housing project’s top priority was a desire that the new temporary housing units look and feel like permanent housing. 

The AHBL team worked closely with YHA staff to design meaningful outdoor spaces that serve the residents recreational needs and provide outdoor entertainment and gathering spaces for workers. Adjacent to Cosecha Court II, the new addition consists of four congregate units with 64 beds for farmworkers, a residential common building, and an office for tenant services. Together, the six units provide 96 beds of low-income housing for farmworkers from April through November and for homeless families during the winter months.
