Bellevue, Washington – Seattle's neighbor to the East - is having a bit of an identity crisis. For decades it’s been the younger sibling... trying to get out from under Seattle’s shadow. But now, Bellevue is preparing for a major change. Workers are putting finishing touches on the long-awaited link across Lake Washington. When it’s finished next year, two of the largest cities in our region will be connected by light rail for the first time.   Bellevue’s older sibling, Seattle, has been in the limelight for a long time. Is it Bellevue’s time to shine? Thank you to the supporters of KUOW, you help make this show possible!
