The last day in the existing location at Marketplace at Factoria (formally the Factoria Mall) will be November 27, 2016.

KidsQuest has raised over $10 million to both buy the location in downtown Bellevue, as well as redevelop it. The location of the new KidsQuest is where the Rosalie Whyel Museum of Doll Art had been located, which is adjacent to the Bellevue Library and Ashwood Playfield.
