Property Description
Auburn 55 presents a compelling 55-unit multifamily development opportunity on approximately 0.92 acres in North Auburn. The generally level infill site is currently planned for a four-story, elevator-served apartment community with 67 parking stalls, including 37 covered spaces. R-NM zoning supports multifamily development, and substantial preliminary work has already been completed, including conceptual plans, a feasibility and market study, development budget, surveys, and additional due diligence materials. Convenient access to SR-167, SR-18, Auburn Station, and the future RapidRide I Line provides strong connectivity to major South King County employment and transit hubs, creating an attractive opportunity for developers seeking a well-positioned infill multifamily project.
