Two truths about Bellevue: the name means "beautiful view" in French, and the city has transformed in the past quarter century.
Yet, the last time a high-quality, large-format book of photos and stories about Bellevue was published was in 1989, nearly 25 years ago. That changed recently with the publication of "Bellevue: Future Unlimited."
The new book contains a wealth of photos and stories that showcase the city's natural beauty, downtown skyline, people, parks, history, home-grown companies and economic vitality.
The book, published by Kirkland-based Wyndham Publications at no cost to the City of Bellevue, also contains a foreword by Mayor Conrad Lee and a section on city government, with information and photos about the city council, boards and commissions, performance measures and economic development.
