High Street Residential, a division of Trammell Crow Company, is moving forward with plans for a new residential development at 11040 Main Street in Bellevue, seeking Design Review approval for the project. This mid-rise building is designed to stand seven to eight stories tall and will encompass around 420,511 square feet, housing 350 residential units that will include both market-rate and affordable options. The development plan emphasizes community enhancement, featuring a new bike lane dedication along Main Street and expanded sidewalks to improve pedestrian access.

Designed by Weber Thompson, the project's construction is slated to begin in spring 2026, signaling a significant investment in Bellevue's residential landscape. The development's focus on affordable housing and community infrastructure reflects a growing trend in urban planning aimed at accommodating population growth while enhancing livability.
