The City of Bellevue has approved plans for Pinnacle North, a large mixed-use project that will bring six new residential towers and retail space to downtown. The development will be located at 10112 NE 10th Street and will replace the existing Le Chateau Apartments, a two-story office building, and surrounding surface parking lots.
Pinnacle North will include a total of 1,613 residential units, with 85 of those units designated as affordable housing. The towers will range in height from 14 to 26 stories. To support residents and visitors, the project will provide 1,784 parking stalls spread across four levels of underground parking. In addition to housing, the development includes ground-floor retail and commercial space, with approximately 97,000 square feet set aside for a supermarket and service-based shops.
The project will also bring new open spaces to the community. Two public plazas are planned, including a 13,605-square-foot plaza on NE 10th Street and an 8,051-square-foot plaza on 102nd Avenue NE. These plazas are designed to serve as outdoor gathering areas with water features, interactive art, and seating.
Two additional plazas will be created for residents, offering amenities such as a dog park and a community garden. A pedestrian pathway, known as the Through Block Connection, will provide an east-west walkway through the site, connecting 102nd Avenue NE to 100th Avenue NE and improving overall walkability.
The six residential buildings will be arranged around four landscaped open spaces, creating what the developers describe as a “front porch” effect for both residents and ground-floor retail.
The project will be built in two construction phases, with Buildings 4 through 6 expected to be completed before work is finished on the two tallest towers, Buildings 1 and 2. Altogether, Pinnacle North will add about 1.27 million square feet of residential space and more than 21,600 square feet of publicly accessible outdoor areas.
The site currently contains 66 apartments at Le Chateau, along with a swimming pool, landscaped areas with mature trees, and a large surface parking lot. Eleven of the apartments are already vacant as the property prepares for redevelopment.
Completion of Pinnacle North is anticipated around 2028.
