Building Overview

Mari Bellevue represents the newest chapter in downtown Bellevue’s condo story – a 17-story boutique tower completed in 2024 that delivers contemporary design, tall ceilings, and a rooftop amenity package unlike anything else in the downtown market.

Developed by Create World and positioned one block from Bellevue Square, Mari occupies a prime position that combines walkable retail access with a residential address removed from the busiest commercial corridors. At 138 units, it shares the boutique character of One88 while offering a more accessible entry price – starting in the mid $600,000s for studio residences.

The building’s most distinctive feature is its vertical amenity stack. The SkyClub and SkyDeck occupy the top of the building, giving residents an indoor-outdoor rooftop living space that no older Bellevue tower can match.

Amenities – Rooftop First

• SkyClub and SkyDeck – Mari’s signature amenity is a rooftop SkyClub (an indoor lounge space with kitchen, seating, and event capabilities) paired with the SkyDeck (an outdoor rooftop terrace with mountain and city views). This combination is unique in downtown Bellevue and gives the building social amenities that residents of older towers genuinely envy.
• Fitness room and yoga space – A dedicated fitness floor with separate areas for strength training and yoga or stretching practice.
• Concierge services – A building concierge managing packages, visitor access, and resident coordination.
• Pet amenities – Dedicated pet care facilities for Mari’s four-legged residents.
• Sauna – A dry sauna available to all residents.
• Game room and lounge – A social gathering space with games, AV equipment, and casual seating.

In the units: 10-foot-plus ceilings, oversized windows, and contemporary finishes reflect Mari’s 2024 build quality throughout.

Who Mari Bellevue Is Best For

Mari is the natural first choice for younger tech professionals and early-career buyers entering the downtown Bellevue luxury condo market. The lower entry price relative to Avenue Bellevue and One88, combined with 2024 construction quality and a rooftop social scene, appeals to a generation of buyers who want urban vibrancy alongside quality finishes.

Mari also works well for buyers who want the newest possible building at an accessible price – zero deferred maintenance concerns, fresh mechanical systems, and the aesthetic of a brand-new build are genuine advantages.

The SkyDeck makes Mari one of the better buildings for buyers who entertain regularly and want a dramatic space to host events that doesn’t require renting a separate event venue.

Location

Mari’s one-block proximity to Bellevue Square is its location superpower. Bellevue Square is the Eastside’s premier shopping destination – Nordstrom, Apple Store, Restoration Hardware, and over 200 shops and restaurants within a five-minute walk of the building entrance. This is the closest any downtown condo building sits to that amenity.

Bellevue Downtown Park, with its walking paths and amphitheater, is also within easy walking distance, giving residents a genuine green escape without leaving the neighborhood.
