A New Benchmark for Sustainable and Connected Living in Redmond's Marymoor Village


Developed by MainStreet Property Group and designed by Tiscareno architects, we are pleased to announce the completion and opening of The Spoke, a 211-unit (21 affordable units, all pre-leased), mixed-use development, in Redmond’s Marymoor Village neighborhood.


Designed to foster connection, sustainability, and convenience, The Spoke features an on-site urban farm, an eclectic and artful living environment, and immediate access to the upcoming SE Redmond/Marymoor Village Light Rail Station, delivering an unmatched residential experience in one of the region’s fastest-growing neighborhoods.

A Community Designed for Connection


At the heart of The Spoke is a public urban forest, a dynamic green space that serves as both a community gathering hub and a natural extension of Marymoor Park. Thoughtfully designed public art installations, a multi-colored sky bridge, and pedestrian-friendly walkways create an engaging atmosphere that seamlessly integrates nature and urban living.


Residents at The Spoke will enjoy:


  • Unparalleled access to Marymoor Park, with direct connections to its 640-acres of trails, sports fields, and concert venues, as well as a rooftop terrace overlooking the park, offering panoramic views and a tranquil space to unwind

  • A courtyard garden, managed by Seattle Urban Farm, providing residents with fresh, locally grown herbs & produce

  • An art studio bathed in natural light, where residents can dive into their next crafting or art project

Exclusive use of a fully equipped international kitchen, perfect for cooking delectable feasts or hosting celebrations

Sustainability Rooted in Nature


Pursuing LEED Platinum and Fitwel certification, The Spoke is built for energy efficiency and residential well-being, embodying the sustainable spirit of the Pacific Northwest. The building’s sculptural roofline rises and falls to mirror the hills beyond Marymoor park, while eco-friendly materials and advanced energy work in harmony with the environment, reinforcing a commitment to sustainable urban living.


Key features include:


  • Low-carbon concrete construction, reducing embodied carbon emissions while ensuring long-term durability

  • A rooftop solar array, generating renewable energy on-site and lowering the community’s carbon footprint

  • Energy-efficient building systems, including air-conditioning, designed to optimize performance while maximizing natural light and ventilation

  • High-performance glazing, prismatic metal cladding, and reflective exterior surfaces that respond dynamically to daylight and weather conditions, allowing the building to subtly shift and evolve like nature itself

  • Native plantings and integrated landscaping, enhancing green spaces and complementing the surrounding environment


Retail & Everyday Conveniences


The Spoke includes over 12,000 SF of retail space, designed to serve both residents and the broader community. Curated retail that enhances the neighborhood includes:


  • Qamaria Coffee – A specialty Arabic-Mediterranean coffeehouse and bakery café, offering handcrafted Yemeni coffee, pastries, and bistro-style meals

  • Birch Tree Academy – A STEM-based bilingual preschool, providing innovative learning programs for toddlers, preschoolers, and kindergarteners

  • One additional retail space is available, with a future tenant announcement forthcoming

Prime Location: Steps from Future Light Rail Access


Located adjacent to the SE Redmond/Marymoor Village Light Rail Station, set to open May 10th, 2025 as part of Sound Transit’s East Link Extension, The Spoke provides seamless access to Bellevue, Seattle, and the Eastside, offering residents a car-free commuting option.


Perfectly positioned on the edge of the eastside’s bustling center, The Spoke delivers a quiet reprieve within nature, blending accessibility and tranquility through thoughtful design and high-quality construction.


With its blend of sustainable design, vibrant community spaces, and unmatched access to the future SE Redmond/Marymoor Village Light Rail Station, The Spoke sets a new standard for seamless connection with a peaceful, nature-infused lifestyle in Redmond.

Congrats on the Spoke Apartments opening. That kind of mixed-use project often becomes a local hub for live music and events. If you're booking performers, a quick sing test can help check pitch and vocal range before the show.

Twenty-one affordable units, all pre-leased, leaves anyone on a voucher or fixed disability income outside this opening; market-rate leasing doesn't solve that. Even with the SE Redmond/Marymoor Village Light Rail Station opening May 10th, 2025, and 640 acres of park next door, car-free access only helps if rent clears. I’d track real monthly costs in an apartment budget worksheet before touring, especially since the rooftop solar array and LEED Platinum ambitions don’t lower your rent.

The opening of The Spoke Apartments marks an exciting addition to the local housing landscape. Modern amenities, thoughtful design, and a community focused atmosphere make it appealing for residents seeking comfort and convenience. Developments like this also create opportunities for small businesses, including providers of the best embroidery digitizing service, to collaborate on branding, uniforms, and promotional materials. Overall, the project reflects positive urban growth, enhances neighborhood value, and sets a strong standard for future residential developments in the area, supporting both lifestyle needs and economic activity for years to come. It will likely attract diverse tenants and investors alike.

The public urban forest and the rooftop terrace overlooking Marymoor Park sound like they could make daily life feel genuinely different, not just another apartment amenity. I could see residents using an AI song generator to put together a soundtrack for an evening walk down to the light rail station.

The urban farm and pre-leased affordable units really set The Spoke apart—love that they’re weaving sustainability into the community fabric. Curious how the Marymoor Village connection shapes daily life there, and I’ve been digging into similar mixed-use projects at https://motion-control-ai.org
