Welcome to the Heart of Bellevue
As Bellevue enters Phase II of Washington’s phased re-opening plan, the local businesses we know and love will gradually begin reopening their doors. As businesses figure out their unique path forward, we’ve been hearing inspiring stories of how they're surviving this crisis.
The Heart of Bellevue campaign is designed to connect and promote local businesses in Downtown Bellevue. We’re sharing stories of activity, creativity and recovery. From hosting virtual and in-person events, to promoting special offers at local restaurants… we’re excited to bring life back to our urban core.
“This is a big opportunity for us to help Downtown thrive,” says Patrick Bannon, president of the Bellevue Downtown Association. “The heart of Bellevue is a very resilient place, growing and evolving in remarkable ways. We’ll continue supporting our city’s great businesses, restaurants, and shops as we move forward together.”
Bellevue is a diverse, growing city with a community that—now more than ever—is striving to support its own. An individual is just as much part of the Heart of Bellevue as a business. This is a place where people can explore their passions, test their creativity and discover what makes them unique. Things may look different after a pandemic, but the core qualities of ambition, strength and passion are still alive.
Discover the Heart of Bellevue.
