With all the exciting other new developments in Napa, let’s not overlook the progress at the “old” Napa Mill, which is the preferred name for the Hatt Building.
It, along with Copia and the Opera House restoration, were the first major steps in Napa’s downtown renaissance.

The cantilevered path around the complex is complete, but not open. Three 20-foot palm trees have been planted on the plaza and the lighting and planters are being installed.
When the path opens, Napa General Store’s patio, and Angèle’s patio, which will be expanding, should become prime spots for people watching, relaxing, eating and drinking.
