Eastgate, Bellevue

The Seattle Washington Temple (formerly the Seattle Temple) is the 21st constructed and 19th operating temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church). Located in the city of Bellevue, east of Seattle, it was the first to be built in the state of Washington. The temple has a modern single-spire design. Due to its proximity to the Bellevue Airfield, the proposed height of the spire was reduced, and a red strobe warning light was installed at the base of the angel Moroni statue. The airfield closed in 1983, and the light was shut off.

Bellevue Airfield (BVU) was a private airfield in the northwest United States, located in what is now the Eastgate Neighborhood of Bellevue, Washington, a suburb east of Seattle. It was situated east of 156th Avenue SE and north of Interstate 90 near Phantom Lake. The 2,300-foot (700 m) asphalt runway's elevation was at 345 feet (105 m) above sea level, and ran southwest to northeast (marked 2/20). Part of the airport's land was used as a landfill from 1951 till 1964, and featured a landfill gas venting system. Closed in 1983, today the area is an office park. When the LDS Seattle Washington Temple opened in 1980, the airfield was still in operation and the temple spire included a strobe light.Sometime after the airport closed, a new heliport was added at the north end of runway named Bellevue Business Park Boeing Company Services Headquarters Heliport with the designation of 71WA. It was reportedly used as a private heliport for the nearby Boeing Eastgate campus. The heliport was closed and the final visible remnants of the north end of the old runway were removed during construction of the Advanta Office Commons buildings leased by Microsoft. The disused heliport is still visible and is occasionally used as a basketball court. The remaining 27 acres north of the Advanta Office Commons was sold to City of Bellevue from Boeing who plans on developing it into Bellevue Airfield Park. However, design and construction is expected to take some time as renovation of the landfill gas system is required. Boeing sold the remainder of its Eastgate Office Park in 2021 and is expected to leave the campus entirely by 2023. The only remnants still visible is the heliport and the red and white lamp posts with two red strobe lights on top situated on the nearby overpasses to the south.
