Height & skyline

Three towers at the city's ceiling.

At roughly 600 feet, each of Onni 606's three towers reaches the maximum height allowed in Downtown Bellevue — making it a rare cluster of three buildings at the city's ceiling.


Bellevue only raised its downtown height limit to 600 feet in 2017. The first tower to reach it topped out in 2023. Onni 606 would add three more at the same height, all on one block.

3D height comparison of 6 Bellevue towers: the three Onni 606 towers, Amazon's 555 Tower, Bellevue 600 (all ~600 ft) and One Lincoln Tower (450 ft) at true relative heights against the city's 600-foot height limit.
