KING STREET STATION

2021

Great American Living Awards Design and Architecture Award of Merit Multi-family New Construction

King Street Station is a transformation – recovering brownfields and revitalizing a walkable

neighborhood – a true example of changing the land use and executing on a vision for a vibrant

community, placemaking.

The King Street Station site was previously home to a train depot, foundry, auto-repair, battery

warehouse retail shop, and millwork shop. Not only was there some amount of site soil

remediation required, but the entire site had to be built up out of the floodplain, and the Town

Brand re-routed underneath the portion of the site where the pavilion structure would be built.

The site is situated along the Town Branch and W&OD Trail, and marks the entry to Downtown

Historic Leesburg, driving in on S King Street/Route 15. It is a prominent location, prior uses not

befitting the entrance to Town, it is now an impressive marker that you have arrived somewhere

special.

The community consists of four boutique condominium buildings with a central elevator,

consisting of 16 residences per building, four residences per floor, all corner units on floors two,

three, and four. There is also a commercial building, occupied by GooseCup Craft Cocktails

and Coffee Shop, with co-working space upstairs, as well as a notable pavilion.
