Located within the 3rd largest regional jobs center and less than 15 miles east of downtown Seattle More details at redmond.gov/Overlake Summary: Overlake attracts talent and families from around the world, and is the third largest jobs center in the Puget Sound region―with more than 48,000 jobs in the Overlake Neighborhood. Over time, Overlake will continue to help meet community shopping, recreation, civic, cultural, entertainment and employment needs; provide attractive and safe places to live close to urban amenities; and be oriented towards pedestrians and bicyclists and served by local and regional bus and rail transit. The Overlake area is an important hub of activity on the Eastside, with immediate access to and from SR 520 and frequent transit service to Downtown Redmond, Downtown Bellevue, UW and Seattle. Redmond has adopted an ambitious vision to enhance these assets by making plans to accommodate significant urban growth in Overlake Village. The density and diversity of people in Overlake help businesses thrive. Solutions: The City is investing in infrastructure to support the vision for Overlake Village as a vibrant urban center including streets, regional stormwater vaults, water and sewer pipes, rain gardens, parks, access to the power grid, bus transit, and light rail which will arrive in 2023. There will be two light rail stations: 1) the Redmond Technology Station (currently Overlake Transit Center) at NE 40th Street, and 2) the Overlake Village Station at 152nd Avenue NE. Both stations will be accessible by transit (including Rapid Ride), passenger drop-off areas, bike lanes/ paths, and pedestrian/bicycle bridges over SR 520 connecting to the regional trail. The Redmond Technology Station will also have a new, 320-stall parking garage. These public investments will accommodate future growth and encourage continued private investment in Overlake.
