If you rent a parking space in downtown Bellevue, you may want to consider switching to public transportation next year.
According to a recent study in the Puget Sound Business Journal, the median price of an unreserved parking space in Bellevue was $180 per month in 2011, an 11.1 percent jump from 2010.
The study showed that downtown Seattle’s median rate was $294 per month last year, a 3.2 percent increase from 2010, while Portland, Ore., kept a steady $185 for both years. Most parking garage owners in North America did not raise rates in 2011.
Readers, what are your thoughts on transportation and parking in downtown Bellevue?
Major bummer. Everything is going up but wages.
