Downtown Bellevue covers 400 acres and includes nearly 5 million
square feet of retail and entertainment uses and more than 6 million
square feet of office space. There are close to 35,000 workers and
nearly 5,000 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 Library, as well as one of the nation's
premier shopping centers, Bellevue Square. It has been estimated
that over the next 20 years, 70% 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.
