Marymoor Village station is a future
garage built on the site.[1]
The station was originally included in the Sound Transit 2
East Link Extension after a funding shortfall stemming from the City of Bellevue's desire for a tunneled alignment under Downtown Bellevue.[2] Sound Transit instead completed environmental reviews and selected a preferred alignment to Downtown Redmond, indefinitely deferring the final segment of East Link until a later date.[3] The Sound Transit 3 ballot measure, passed in 2016, includes $1.1 billion in funding for the two stations in Downtown Redmond, which were planned by 2024.[4] Preliminary engineering on the Redmond extension was approved in February 2016, after being suspended in 2010.[5]
The station was originally named SE Redmond until Marymoor Village was adopted as its permanent name in June 2022.[6] Preliminary construction at the site began in late 2020.[7] The station is scheduled to open in 2025.[8]
