The new Brooklands - Open for Investment

More about the Brooklands

The easternmost section of Auburn Road in Rochester Hills, formerly knows as “Olde Towne”, is one of the oldest areas of what was formerly Avon Township. While commercial development has continued to grow throughout the rest of the City, this district has remained relatively consistent in its “old town” character and vacant sites prime for redevelopment. The two-lane Auburn Road, previously under the jurisdiction of MDOT, but now owned by Rochester Hills used to lack defined driveways and parking areas. While there had been previous studies for Auburn Road, and especially a design and new code for the Brooklands district, there had been little implementation. The City undertook this planning process to refresh the previous plans, provide direction for both the roadway and properties along it, and to outline specific actions to implement recommendations.
