Map of Spring District station and what's walkable

Why get off here

The Spring District did not exist as a walkable neighborhood a decade ago. It was built around this station, which is why it is the one place in Bellevue where the light rail feels like the reason the city is there rather than an addition to it.

Come for a weekday lunch or an early evening — it is a working district, and it empties out late.

Spring District station questions

Frequently asked questions

Is the Spring District worth a stop for visitors?

It is if you like new-build urbanism, breweries, and quiet plazas. It is a smaller stop than downtown, and best combined with Wilburton or BelRed in one trip.

Is it walkable at night?

The core blocks are well lit and flat, though the district is quieter after office hours than downtown Bellevue.
