Pike & Rose is a mixed-use development in the form of an ersatz downtown in North Bethesda, Maryland, a block away from North Bethesda station of the Washington metro. Its first phase opened in 2014. Pike & Rose now comprises 379,000 sq ft (35,200 m2) of retail, 864 residential units, a 177-room hotel, and just under 300,000 sq ft (28,000 m2) of class-A office space. Retail anchors include REI, West Elm, and Uniqlo.[1][2] Amp by Strathmore, a 200-seat music venue, is adjacent to an iPic movie theater. There is a Porsche auto dealership.
Montgomery County, Maryland has allocated $150 million for the area's development and envisions an eventual 20,000 residential population. The developer is Federal Realty Investment Trust, known for other mixed-use developments at nearby Bethesda Row as well as Santana Row in San Jose, California and Assembly Row in Somerville, Massachusetts.[3]
Elements of the complex include:[3]
- Pallas, a 20-story building, of which the top half is residential and the bottom half is a Canopy by Hilton hotel
- The Henri, another high-rise residential building that has architectural elements mimicking New York City's Puck Building
- 909 Rose, a high-rise office building
- 915 Meeting Street, a high-rise office building (tenants include Choice Hotels International and Sodexo)
- 935 Prose, a high-rise office building (under construction)
The development is named after two of the roads that border it, Rockville Pike and Montrose Parkway.[4] Much of the development is on the former site of Mid-Pike Plaza, a shopping center whose original anchor tenant was an E.J. Korvette discount department store.[5]
