Downtown Bellevue is the primary economic and employment center for the city and the region – and over the past two decades, has become Bellevue’s fastest growing residential neighborhood. The area sets a high bar for urban living. With a great mix of senior housing, young professionals and families, downtown Bellevue has become home to an intergenerational community – all enjoying the walkability, safety and energy of living in the heart of Bellevue’s city life.
With the convenience of casual and fine dining, world class shopping and cultural attractions, as well as the Downtown Park and Meydenbauer Bay, all within walking distance – something fabulous is always close by. It could be a new exhibit at the Bellevue Arts Museum, a show during the Jazz Festival or some family-fun at Snowflake Lane. Old Bellevue on Main, the Bellevue Collection, the Bravern, or any of the specialty stores and restaurants located Downtown provide opportunities to discover something new year-round. Downtown Bellevue is also home to Bellevue’s Meydenbauer Convention Center and Bellevue’s City Hall.
The future for downtown Bellevue is bright.The City’s plan is to make Downtown more viable, livable and memorable. The Grand Connection will create pedestrian connections between Meydenbauer Bay Park, Downtown Park, along the Pedestrian Corridor and across I-405 into Wilburton. The KidsQuest Museum is locating next to the Downtown Library. Downtown Park is completing the circle, adding Inspiration Playground and Meydenbauer Bay Park will provide public access to the waterfront on Lake Washington.
