Aurora Rents in temporary quarters


Aurora Rents, a veteran Shoreline business, is temporarily located in the old mattress factory at 192nd and Aurora, in the shadow of the Blakeley Senior Living Apartments.

The building itself is large enough; however the lack of parking means that the site is not suitable for ongoing business at that location.

Larry Steele, owner of Aurora Rents, had to demolish his old building at 175th & Aurora to make way for the widening of Aurora Avenue. He successfully negotiated with the city for ownership of the section of the Red Brick Road behind his site.

Site preparation is proceeding on the original site at 175th and construction of a new building will soon begin.

In the meantime, business continues at the temporary location on 192nd.
