BETHESDA CONSTRUCTION UPDATE: FLATS AT 8300/HARRIS TEETER GROCERY STORE (PHOTOS)

The construction of Bethesda's first Harris Teeter, and the larger 8300 Wisconsin Avenue mixed-use project which it is the anchor of, continues at the corner of Wisconsin and Battery Lane. Developed by StonebridgeCarras, the building is being constructed by Donohoe Construction. Above the grocery store will be the Flats at 8300 luxury apartments.

8300 WISCONSIN APARTMENTS GET A NAME IN BETHESDA

The future luxury apartments at 8300 Wisconsin Avenue appear to have a name now for marketing purposes - and it sounds awfully familiar to anyone following downtown Bethesda development closely. Apartment management firm Bozzuto is now referring to 8300 as the Flats at 8300.

Of course, this is quite similar to another Bozzuto property currently under construction in Bethesda - The Flats, part of the Lot 31 StonebridgeCarras development. And StonebridgeCarras just happens to be the developer behind 8300 Wisconsin.

Branding multiple buildings the same is not uncommon in this wave of development in Montgomery County. Washington Property Company, for example, is using the name Solaire on buildings in Silver Spring, Wheaton and Bethesda.

The Flats at 8300 is currently under construction by The Donohoe Companies, and will offer 370 apartments over a 50,000 SF Harris Teeter grocery store. Amenities will include high ceilings, walk-in closets, movable kitchen islands, stainless steel appliances, courtyard, fitness center, WiFi, and in-residence washers and dryers.

Here's an update on the future 8300 Wisconsin luxury apartment building, which will include a Harris Teeter grocery store, at the corner of Wisconsin Avenue and Battery Lane in downtown Bethesda. Developed by StonebridgeCarras, the mixed-use project is being built by Donohoe Construction.

8300 WISCONSIN HARRIS TEETER/LUXURY APARTMENTS CONSTRUCTION UPDATE (PHOTOS)

Here is a new batch of photos from the construction site of 8300 Wisconsin, a mixed-use development that will hold the first Harris Teeter grocery store in Bethesda. Developed by StonebridgeCarras, the project is being constructed by Donohoe, which recently celebrated the grand opening of its nearby Gallery Bethesda apartment tower.

One question that I hadn't thought of before a commenter posed it last week is, will the Bethesda Harris Teeter be 24 hours? With the Montgomery vs. Fairfax rivalry still going strong, it has to be pointed out that the Tysons Harris Teeter is open 24 hours. And Tysons isn't even transformed into an urban area yet.
