Transformation of Bethesda, Maryland, office tower turns aging property into elevated tenant experience

The transformation of an office tower in Bethesda, Maryland, into a modern workplace with up-to-date amenities and sustainability features turned an aging 15-story building into one that offers an elevated tenant experience.

A $25 million redevelopment of the complex at 2 Bethesda Metro Center by its owner, the Chevy Chase Land Co., wrapped up early last year.

The main components of the refurbishment involved relocating the main entrance, adding a fitness center and conference facility, and creating a new amenity pavilion.

The successful completion of the renovation earned the project a 2025 CoStar Impact Award for redevelopment of the year in the Washington, D.C., market, as judged by real estate professionals familiar with the market.

Close to the Bethesda Metro station, tenants in the more than 315,000-square-foot building include professional services firm Citrin Cooperman and Cushman & Wakefield, according to CoStar data.

The Peruvian restaurant Pisco y Nazca Ceviche Gastrobar is expected to open on the ground floor in the spring.
