This July 2008 market conditions report, prepared by Heartland for the City of Burien, analyzes redevelopment potential for the Northeast Redevelopment Area (NERA), a collection of underutilized properties adjacent to Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The report examines four land use categories—industrial, office, retail, and residential—to inform alternative redevelopment strategies developed in partnership with the City of Burien and the Port of Seattle. Key findings highlight strong demand for airport-adjacent industrial space, limited office development in Burien, and the need to understand residential market conditions in order to encourage non-residential uses in the area.

The NEST Study, published in December 2004, examined eight underutilized properties near Seattle-Tacoma International Airport to assess their potential for future economic development. Commissioned by a partnership of the Cities of Burien, Des Moines, and SeaTac along with the Port of Seattle, the study analyzed market conditions, infrastructure needs, financial feasibility, and appropriate land uses for each property. The findings, funded by a $96,900 federal grant, provided conceptual development plans and job creation estimates aimed at spurring economic growth in South King County communities surrounding the airport.

The NEST (New Economic Strategic Triangle) Study, completed in November 2004, examines development opportunities on properties surrounding Seattle-Tacoma International Airport within the cities of Burien, Des Moines, and SeaTac. Funded by the U.S. Economic Development Administration, the study identifies target industries, assesses highest and best use for each property, and provides strategic recommendations to guide economic growth in the airport region. The report was produced through a partnership of local governments and the Port of Seattle, with support from a team of real estate, engineering, and planning consultants.
