The Towers
Three towers, one podium, ≈600 feet each.
The approved plan puts apartments and a hotel in two towers and offices in the third. A pending 2026 application would move the hotel and shrink the office program; the comparison below keeps those versions separate.
Plan status
Approved program vs. pending redesign.
As of August 22, 2026, permit 26-106943-LJ remains pending — not approved. The approved plan is still the operative baseline.
Pending — not approved
2026 reconfiguration
- Tower 1
- Residential program; hotel removed
- Tower 2
- All-residential tower; least affected
- Tower 3
- Hotel moves here; office program shrinks
The city says a new transportation-concurrency determination is required before the reconfiguration can be approved. Tower 1 and Tower 3 building reviews are held pending that decision; the approved plan remains the baseline until then. The use assignments below therefore show the approved baseline, not the pending alternative. The 2019 SEPA checklist and April 2026 reporting use larger project-wide totals, but neither is a replacement approval. The reconciliation below dates those layers explicitly instead of combining them.
Record reconciliation · as of August 22, 2026
Why 53 stories can end at Level 58.
Three kinds of number appear in the public record: marketed story counts, permit level labels and program totals from different filing dates. They describe related things, but they are not interchangeable.
| Building element | Published program | Active permit language | How to read the difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| Shared base | Public project summaries describe a shared three-story podium. The 2025 refinement reports 1,712 parking stalls across five below-grade levels. | 25-105052-BB is the separate podium permit. The tower permit scopes say their work begins above Level 5. The below-grade permit 24-104362-BB identifies P2 through P5. | Podium stories, permit level labels and parking-level labels are different conventions. The reviewed public records do not provide a sheet-by-sheet crosswalk, including how P1 is divided among packages. |
| Tower 1 | The 2022 design-approval record reports 53 stories, 425 residences and 257 hotel rooms. A separate 2019 SEPA checklist uses 317 suites, while April 2026 reporting describes more than 400; neither replaces the approved count without an amended schedule. | 25-105181-BB describes residential and hotel work above the Level 5 podium, with the roof at Level 58. The review is held pending the 2026 reconfiguration. | Level 58 is a permit drawing label, not evidence that the marketed 53-story count increased to 58. The 425-home figure is a dated 2022 allocation; it cannot be combined with a different project-wide total as though both came from one schedule. |
| Tower 2 | The 2022 design-approval record reports 54 stories and 634 residences. A separate 2019 environmental worksheet models 1,289 residences project-wide, but the public text reviewed here does not assign that total between the towers. | 25-105109-BB describes residential work above the Level 5 podium, with the roof at Level 59. It is the least affected by the proposed hotel move but remains pending with structural corrections outstanding. | The five-number gap between 54 stories and roof Level 59 aligns with the Level 5 start in the scope, but that arithmetic is only a useful reading—not a published floor crosswalk. |
| Tower 3 | The 2022 design-approval record reports 45 stories and 871,818 square feet of office. The 2019 environmental worksheet uses 894,500 square feet; current project coverage rounds the office program to about 896,000 square feet plus a 9,532-square-foot daycare. | 25-105295-BB describes an office shell-and-core above the Level 5 podium, with the roof at Level 47. Its review is held pending the 2026 reconfiguration that would move the hotel into this tower and reduce office space. | The roof label again should not replace the marketed story count. The approved office baseline remains 871,818 square feet until an amended approval publishes a replacement schedule. |

The design-review-era schedule reports 53 / 54 / 45 stories; 1,059 residences split 425 + 634; 257 hotel suites in Tower 1; and 871,818 sf of office in Tower 3. Those figures do not match every input in the 2019 environmental model.

The documented change drops parking from 2,479 stalls on seven levels to 1,712 on five, expands indoor bike parking and moves the central energy plant. The public permit summary reviewed here does not supply a replacement tower-by-tower residential schedule.

Project profile · 26-106943-LJ
Current coverage describes more than 1,300 residences, more than 400 hotel suites and about 896,000 sf of office. The pending application would move the hotel to Tower 3 and shrink the office program; neither the coverage nor the pending permit supplies a reconciled city-approved floor-by-floor schedule.

Reading rule: use story counts for public-scale comparisons, permit levels for the scope of a specific building package, and program totals only with their date and evidence class. The 1,289 project total appears in a 2019 environmental model while the 425 + 634 tower split appears in the 2022 design record; the reviewed public files do not publish a single crosswalk that resolves them.

Amenities
What the block gives back — and keeps.
Onni 606 splits cleanly into space dedicated to the public and space reserved for residents and tenants.
What the city gets
Public realm
The dedicated open space and pedestrian routes the public benefit bargain bought.
15,000 sf public plaza
Open space at the southern end
A 15,000-square-foot open room at the block's southern end — the kind of paved, planted clearing where downtown actually slows down.
The Grand Connection
A 30-ft-wide segment of Bellevue's signature route
Thirty feet of Bellevue's signature green spine cut straight through the site, stitching the downtown core toward the waterfront and Wilburton beyond I-405.
Through-block connection
Pedestrian path across the site
A mid-block pedestrian cut so you can walk across the four-acre superblock instead of around it — a rare shortcut on a block this size.
Ground-floor retail
Commercial space along the street
Shopfronts wrapping the podium keep the sidewalk active after the office lobbies go dark.
What residents get
Private amenities
Resident-only and tenant-facing space inside the towers and podium.
Two swimming pools
Private amenity decks
Two pools tucked into private amenity decks — one crowning the all-residential Tower 2's sky lounge.
On-site daycare
9,532 sf in Tower 3
A 9,532-square-foot daycare in the Tower 3 podium — drop the kids, ride the elevator up to the office.
Independent analysis
Who all this is for.
Read the program against the developer and the answer comes into focus. Onni Group builds to own and operate, not to sell — so the 1,059 homes in the 2022 approval are certainly rental apartments, a different animal from the for-sale condo towers that define much of Bellevue's recent skyline. That single fact reframes the whole project: this is 1,059 approved units of professionally managed rental housing planned into the densest corner of the Eastside.
Under the approved plan, the office tower targets Downtown Bellevue's concentration of technology and finance employers with 871,818 square feet in the 2022 approval. The pending 2026 reconfiguration would shrink that office program and move the hotel into the same tower, a meaningful response to the changed post-pandemic office market rather than a settled fact.
The approved 257-room hotel reads as a Bellevue Collection play. With Bellevue Square, Lincoln Square and the rest of the Collection a short walk west, the hotel slots into the Eastside's shopping-and-business-travel circuit — rooms for the tech visitors, conference traffic and retail tourism the district already pulls. Its tower assignment is now in flux: Tower 1 in the approved plan, Tower 3 in the pending application.
And the smaller pieces quietly make the live-work pitch. A 9,532-square-foot daycare in the podium plus the 2 Line light-rail station a few blocks east means a resident could, in theory, drop a child downstairs, walk to the train, and never touch a car — the kind of fifteen-minute-city arithmetic Bellevue has been chasing for a decade.
Onni builds to keep. That makes the approved 1,059-home program less a skyline trophy than a rental district wired into the Eastside's densest block.
The civic bargain
How three 600-foot towers got approved.
Towers this tall don't happen by default. The 606 block can reach ≈600 feet because of a 2017 Downtown Bellevue land-use update that raised the height ceiling in this part of the core — the policy switch that made a three-tower scheme at this scale even conceivable on the site.
The project itself cleared the bar in June 2022, when the City of Bellevue approved both the Master Development Plan and the Design Review for the three-tower scheme. That approval is what turned a tall-building allowance into a permitted, buildable project.
The most interesting part is the trade. Bellevue's incentive zoning runs on a bargain: you get the extra height and density, the public gets dedicated open space and connection. Here that means a 15,000-square-foot public plaza, a 30-foot-wide segment of the Grand Connection — Bellevue's signature landscaped pedestrian spine — and a through-block pedestrian path cut across the four-acre superblock, all dedicated in exchange for the bulk overhead. The height isn't a giveaway; it's the city's side of a deal whose other half is the public realm at street level.
