Building permits have been issued to a Liberty Lake developer for a 100-unit, second phase of a multifamily housing complex on the West Plains, records on file with Spokane County show.
The developer, Rudeen Development LLC, will act as its own contractor on the $7.6 million project, named Bentley Apartments Phase II, documents on file show. Milbrandt Architects Inc., of Bellevue, Wash., designed the project, and Storhaug Engineering Inc., of Spokane, is listed as project engineer.
Rudeen Development declines to comment on the project.
Bentley Apartments II LLC, which is associated with Rudeen Development, will own the complex, records show.
The project includes five 18-unit buildings and five duplexes. It will be located just east of the city of Airway Heights, on vacant land at 1715 S. Hayford, a few blocks south of U.S. 2.
The project site is just east of the 98-unit, $6.6 million first phase of Bentley Apartments.
That phase of the complex originally was proposed under the name Hayford Heights Apartments, but its name was changed to Bentley Apartments when it was built in 2006.
Access to both phases of the complex is from Hayford Road.
County documents don't indicate how much floor space the apartment units would have, but units in the first phase of Bentley Apartments have one or two bedrooms, range in size from 730 square feet to 1,170 square feet, and rent for $585 to $900 a month, the ForRent.com Web site shows.
Separately, Rudeen Development is developing a subdivision near Airway Heights called Pillar Rock Estates where 288 homes are planned on a 64-acre site on the east side of Flint Road, about 1,200 feet north of U.S. 2.
Rudeen Development has developed other multifamily housing complexes here, including Beau Rivage, at 4707 E. Upriver Drive; Brianwood Apartments, at 9407 E. Mission; and Pheasant Ridge Apartments, at 601 S. Woodruff.
The company's headquarters are in the Alliant Securities Building, which it developed at 695 N. Legacy Ridge, in Liberty Lake, and to which it moved recently from Spokane. It also has an office in Monroe, Wash.
