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.
