NEW YORK: The three hundred and sixty-second entry for the seniors housing Global Awards 2016 has been received.
The developer at the center of the recently approved Westbard Sector Plan on Wednesday revealed its plans for a multiphase 1.8 million-square-foot multigenerational redevelopment project that would largely remake Westbard Avenue in Bethesda.
Equity One hosted the required public meeting before it submits its sketch plan application to the county Planning Board, the initial step of an approval process that could lead to shovels hitting the ground as early as the first quarter of 2018.
The first phase of the place making project would bring three 60-foot-tall retail and commercial buildings fronting Westbard Avenue on the site of the aging Westwood Shopping Center.
The Giant Food grocery store that currently anchors that shopping center will take over part of the southernmost retail and commercial building, said Michael Berfield, executive vice president of development for New York-based Equity One.
