About the Project
The Perle Apartments will be a seven-story, 203,320-square-foot, market-rate community in Bellevue, featuring 230 residential units. The project comprises two residential towers connected at the ground level by a shared community space and an outdoor plaza.
The homes will offer a variety of layouts, including studios, open one-bedrooms, traditional one-bedrooms, two-bedrooms, and select two-story studios and two-bedroom lofts located on the ground floor.
Amenities will include two rooftop club rooms with outdoor BBQ stations and fire pits, a coworking flex space, a fully equipped fitness center, and an interior landscaped courtyard with plentiful seating and additional fire features. The development will also provide two dog-run areas, two levels of subterranean parking, and a street-facing palazzo with outdoor furnishings designed to encourage community use and engagement.
Scheduled completion date is Q4 2027

Closures will occur weekdays from 7:00 AM to 3:30 PM and include:
- Closure of a portion of 106th Pl NE near the project site

Roadways will reopen at the end of each workday and remain open on weekends. Traffic control personnel and posted signage will be onsite to help guide vehicles and pedestrians safely through the area.
Neighbors may also experience periodic congestion near NE 12th Street and 106th Pl NE due to deliveries, hauling, and ongoing construction access. We kindly ask the public to follow posted signage and traffic control directions to help maintain a safe environment for everyone.
We appreciate the community’s continued patience and support as construction progresses.
We apologize for any inconveniences throughout the construction process. The safety of all employees, neighbors and the general public is our number one priority. Please be aware of changing conditions in the public right-of-way as sidewalk and street conditions are ever changing. Heavy equipment is entering and exiting the jobsite regularly. Please be aware of your surroundings and help us keep this project safe and free of injury.
Thank you.
