It's more Bellevue than it is Seattle.

Some observations:
  • The Hotel/Residential portion of the LS expansion won't be visible from this angle
  • I like how the skyline is starting to get some density. A decade ago the view from this angle looked like a single row of buildings. Now there is some more depth.
  • If the 600 foot tower at International Plaza gets built, it will be directly behind the Bellevue Towers north tower and appear almost 200 feet taller from this angle.

Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants Unveils Plans for New Modern Boutique Hotel in Bellevue, Washington



Quote:
Kimpton Hotels & Restaurants announced today it has been selected by the Fana Group of Companies to manage a new, luxury boutique hotel in the upscale Seattle, Washington suburb of Bellevue. The 120-room new-construction project is part of a major, mixed use development scheduled to break ground in early 2017. The development will include two high-rise towers and 270 premium rental apartments.

Slated for a 2019 opening, the new Bellevue Kimpton will occupy the development's North Tower and will include approximately 5,000 square feet of meeting space, a street-level, full service restaurant, a heated rooftop pool with adjacent event space and lounge, a fitness center and all the other amenities commonly associated with the Kimpton brand.

Located in the heart of downtown Bellevue's central business district, the new hotel will be a short walk away from world class shopping, restaurants and entertainment including Bellevue Square, Lincoln Center and the Bravern. Major companies with nearby offices include Microsoft, T-Mobile and PACCAR, Concur Technologies and more. Downtown Bellevue is about ten miles from downtown Seattle.

Should be. Concrete building rising slowly in the foreground, steel one further up in the background. It's Lincoln Square by the way.

23 story development proposed:

=======================

Su Development plans 258 units in Bellevue



Quote:
Su Development wants to build a 23-story apartment tower and an adjacent seven-story building at 1021 112th Ave. N.E. in downtown Bellevue.

Early design review documents show the complex would have a total of 258 units, two levels of retail and five levels of underground parking with 439 spaces.

Linda Abe, director of development for Su, said the goal is to begin construction in spring 2017.


ZGF Architects is designing the complex, and CDG Workshop, Su's contracting division, will be the contractor. DCI Engineers is the structural and civil engineer.

It's towers 3 and 4 of Lincoln Square. The office on the right is closer to completion. The one still visibly underway is a hotel/residential.

Arrow BELLEVUE | One88 | FT | 21 FLOORS

Project: One88



Quote:
The 21-story high-rise will be one of the first new large condominium projects in Bellevue since the recession.

Bosa Development has announced One88, a luxury residential tower in downtown Bellevue, as its first venture on the Eastside.

The 21-story high-rise will be one of the first new large condominium projects underway in Bellevue since the recession, offering approximately 143 one-, two- and three-bedroom units, as well as penthouse residences.


“With Bellevue experiencing such tremendous growth and the lack of new urban condominium options, One88 will bring an entirely new luxury real estate offering to the downtown area,” Bemi Jauhal, director of sales and marketing for Bosa, said. “The Eastside is booming and we look forward to bringing the quality and success of our Insignia project, that is nearing sell-out, to our first project in Bellevue.”

One88 is located just steps from Downtown Park and a variety of dining and high-end shopping at The Shops at The Bravern and The Bellevue Collection, at the intersection of Bellevue Way Northeast and Northeast Second Street. The new homes will offer views of Lake Washington, mountains and surrounding green park areas. The project is expected to break ground in early 2017.

Interesting tidbit about the possible/pending upzone in Bellevue, as posted by C33F at SSC:

Quote:
Originally Posted by c33f View Post
During one meeting in 2016, I do recall a public comment against the up-zoning to 600 feet (183 m), but one of the Planning Commissioners responded with something like… “Bellevue is going to grow whether we like it or not and we have to find ways to accommodate more people and businesses in the city.”

Furthermore, in the meeting packet for 11 January 2017, I did see about seven or eight emailed letters from concerned citizens in and around Downtown Bellevue, with concerns over proposed heights, bulk and densities. 5 to 6 of these emails had the same exact text emphasizing “height limits are height limits” and calling for the abolishment of bonus height allowance. (Note, this won’t affect the DT-O-1 zone [max. height remains at 600 feet / 183 m], since there is no 15% bonus height in this area, as well as any other zone without bonus heights.) However, this will affect every other zone with the 10% and 15% bonus height (see this post for details how the removal of bonus heights impact max. heights). The other two emails wanted the Planning Commission to delay the process for up-zoning until the concerns of added density and tower height could be sorted out.

Given the time, the resources and the meetings invested by the Planning Commission, the Citizens Advisory Committee and the other stakeholders in ascertaining the details and specifics of the proposed up-zone, I doubt the Commissioners will revise down the proposed heights and densities in response to those concerns. The Commissioners will probably reply in a similar fashion to the public comment above…. “Whether we like it or not, Bellevue is growing and we are finding ways to accommodate more people and businesses.” In addition, the Urban Land Institute’s technical assistance reiterated that no plan satisfies everyone and thus implying that there are some concerns to be left un-addressed.

Also, the tone of the meetings gives an impression that the Commissioners are generally content with proposed upzones, such as details on height, FAR, etc. For the meeting on this past Wednesday, 25 January 2017, these Commissioners were focused on other issues germane to the proposed upzone, such as tower spacing and tie-in with the East Main Link Station area planning.

Highlights from 25 January meeting:
  • For the block closest to East Main Link Station and Main Street-112th Ave SE intersection, proposed max. tower heights range from 65’ (20 m) to 295’ (90 m)… with a 295’ (90 m) residential tower, 65’ (20 m) residential midrise, 120’ (36 m) office blocks for sound-proofing against I-405 freeway noise and a 155’ (47 m) hotel tower. This block will have elements of good pedestrian design, such as frontage, mid-block crosswalks, public spaces, etc. and no visible parking.
Image credit – City of Bellevue.



  • For the rest of the East Main Primary TOD area, I believe maximum heights should be around 15 to 20 stories, as well as being a mixed-use area. There is a gradual step-down of building heights towards the south and I-405 per the wedding cake approach.
  • The Urban Land Institute recommends the Bellevue prioritizes the evaluation of parking minimums and maximums in the Downtown Bellevue Transit Center + Link & East Main Station areas. Perhaps the revised parking codes will convince Touchstone to cut down on the amount of parking in the Bellevue 600 project due to adjacency to transit stations.
  • There will be a new draft of the land-use amendments/upzones coming out in early February. One big change is the inclusion of language that allows for a tower spacing of less than 80’ (24 m) to enable development on smaller lots. This change responds to developers’ concerns regarding the economic infeasibility of skyscraper development on small lots with the 80’ (24 m) spacing, especially with multi-tower projects. The absolute minimum tower spacing remains to be determined at the time of this writing.
  • There are four more Planning Commission meetings before the public hearing and the City Council’s vote for adoption or rejection of these proposed zoning changes in Spring 2017.
More details and meeting materials, such as agendas, minutes and presentations, found here.

More news for Bellevue as reported on SSC:

Nice writeup on the Parkside Apartments (25 102nd Ave NE on the 99 Park restaurant site) in the DJC today. 99 Park should get the corner retail space at NE 1st St and 102nd Ave NE in the new building, with another small retail space on 102nd Ave NE. Continental Development president said he basically will only buy sites in walkable areas.

Mirador apartments have wood framing up to the third floor now. You can see the Vuecrest apartments crane from downtown, but haven't been near the site.
