Every day, locals drive past the vacant lot at 302 W North Bend Way, a once-thriving gas station and convenience store.
Located at the intersection of North Bend Way and Sydney Avenue, this 1,400-square-foot building surrounded by asphalt has stood empty since 2021, potentially harboring contaminated soil from its previous use.
Situated within the downtown corridor and near a key gateway to the city, 302 W North Bend Way is a highly visible property with significant potential to address various community needs, such as an expanded food bank or affordable housing.
To realize this potential, the City of North Bend is actively seeking community input to help shape the future of this important property.
