Urban Partners
Developer
Urban Partners is a developer of mixed-use, urban-infill projects in communities throughout
the Western United States. The firm specializes in village-scale environments that include
retail, civic and recreational uses, which are proposed for Burien Town Square. An essential
element of a successful urban village is a 24-hour residential population, with people of all
ages, income levels and backgrounds. Leading the Urban Partners’ team is Dan Rosenfeld, a
third-generation property owner in Burien, whose family has lived in the Pacific Northwest for
more than 100 years. Rosenfeld and Urban Partners have been working with the Burien community,
City staff and elected officials since 2003 to fine-tune the details of Burien Town Square in
conformance with the City of Burien’s long-range master plan for downtown Burien.

The City of Burien
Civic Partner
Burien, a 100-year-old community with a rich heritage, has been busy defining and redesigning itself
as a vibrant King County city. Burien Town Square is the culmination of more than a decade of downtown
planning, land acquisitions and rezoning by the City of Burien, with the goal of revitalizing the
downtown core. In 2003, Urban Partners LLC was selected to partner with the City to develop the Town
Square. After multiple community meetings and events, incorporating the feedback of city planners and
community members, a clear plan has been developed for Burien Town Square, which the City has approved.
Burien Town Square will be a sustainable development, will add local revenues to support police and fire
and other public services, and will instill a sense of community pride.
