Draft Vision Statement

Based on input received during the Discover phase, the planning team has developed a draft vision statement for Eastgate. As you read this draft vision statement, imagine the community 5–10 years into the future.

Draft Vision Statement:

Eastgate is an economically thriving neighborhood, employment center, and regional transit corridor that lies at the intersection of city and nature. Community members connect with one another as they experience the area’s natural beauty, from trails and streams to nearby mountains, while enjoying convenient access to world-class amenities and outdoor recreation the neighborhood, city, and region have to offer. Mixed-use areas on both sides of Interstate 90, as well as Bellevue College, anchor the neighborhood as vibrant hubs for residents, students, and employees to gather, socialize, and build community.
