| Downtown Bellevue covers 400 acres
and includes 4.5 million square feet of retail and entertainment
uses and 9 million square feet of office space. There are nearly
45,000 workers and 10,200 residents housed in downtown. The community
is also home to the Bellevue Arts Museum and the Meydenbauer Center,
two of the Eastside's most outstanding arts and convention venues,
the award-winning King County Regional Library, as well as two of
the nation's premier destination retail centers, The Bellevue Collection
and The Shops at The Bravern. It is estimated that over the next
20 years, 75% of Bellevue's population and employment growth will
occur in downtown. Through this evolution, the Bellevue Downtown
Association will continue to champion and provide leadership for
a viable, livable, memorable and accessible downtown.
