The City of Bellevue is offering interim startup space for budding entrepreneurs in downtown Bellevue.
The space is located in the north building of the city-owned Lincoln Center office complex, at 555 116th Avenue NE, just a 5-minute walk from Whole Foods Market.
The city’s gesture follows suit with its Economic Development Plan, which aims to cultivate Bellevue’s next generation of technology entrepreneurs, according to a press statement.
Up to 11,600 square feet of vacant space is available within the building. The city can negotiate below-market lease rates if the use has a clear public benefit and advances the city’s economic development plan.
Lease agreements will expire at the end of 2016 as the building will be demolished to make way for construction of Sound Transit’s East Link light rail.
Entrepreneurs may submit proposals detailing the use of the space by Monday, Nov. 10 at 4 p.m. For more information, contact Strategic Planning Manager Emil King ([email protected]) or Planning Director Dan Stroh ([email protected]).
