I think some new rental residential units are in order. They can't all be condos.
An article in last week's DJC said that Eastside rents went up 6-8% from 12/04 to 12/05, and that rents will increase another 4-10% during 2006. The article also says that this will bring rents back to where they were in 2000-2001 when the market peaked last.
Plus all the condo conversions have reduced the supply of apartments, and downtown Bellevue is now a desirable, higher-end market to live in.
