What's being built in Southeast Bend

An interactive look at every active, approved, and pre-application development reshaping the 15th and 27th Street corridors.

Southeast Bend is in the middle of the largest residential build-out in the city's history. A combination of House Bill 3318 that fast-tracked the Stevens Road Tract, the Southeast Area Plan covering everything from 15th to 27th, and Senate Bill 1537's expedited UGB process means the next five to seven years will reshape the area entirely. Layer in the federally funded Reed Market Bridge and the new Reed South commercial center, and you have a complete neighborhood being rewritten in real time.

Why It Matters

A neighborhood being built in real time

Whether you're buying a home, selling one, or already living in Southeast Bend, the next few years matter. Property values, traffic patterns, school boundaries, and the literal character of these streets will look different by 2030.

Legacy Village alone will add roughly 2,500 homes to the area immediately east of 27th. Stevens Ranch will add another 1,710 plus the new Deschutes County Central Library and a 100,000 square foot commercial corridor. The Reed Market Road extension that crosses the canal into Stevens Road will be the first east-west arterial expansion in nearly ten years.

For buyers, this is both opportunity and homework. Some streets sit in the middle of construction zones for the next three years. Others sit a half-mile away and benefit from new parks, new schools, and improved infrastructure.

For sellers, the build-out window is short. New construction supply tends to pull market attention away from existing homes. Knowing what's coming, and when, changes how you price and how you position.
