Commercial Real Estate Agency, Schnitzer West, recently announced that they are planning a new development in Downtown Bellevue. The building will be located at 120 106th Avenue Northeast.
The project is called “The Arcadian” and will feature 458,000 square feet of rentable office space. It will be 19-stories, with an estimated 5,000 square feet of ground-floor retail space and 1,190 parking spaces.
The building will include different amenities like private conference rooms, executive conference rooms, a Great Room, bicycle storage, and a fitness center with locker rooms. There will also be outdoor terraces for tenants and visitors.
An open-air pedestrian plaza is planned to enhance walkability by connecting 106th and 107th Streets.
