CHEVY
CHASE, Md., April 25,
2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Property management and
development company Landmark Realty hosted a grand-opening for the
much-anticipated Crescent at Chevy
Chase on Saturday, April 20,
2024, marking the opening of one of the first Purple-Line
oriented developments. Over 200 attendees gathered to witness the
ribbon-cutting of the 111-unit building and to celebrate the
Crescent's vital role in contributing to a solution for the DC
area's housing crisis.
"Buildings are brick and mortar, but what
we built here is a real sense of community."
Notable attendees at the ribbon-cutting included Congressman
Jamie Raskin, U.S. Representative
for Maryland's 8th congressional
district, Montgomery County Councilmember Andrew Friedson, and
former NFL quarterback Gus
Frerotte.
"Crescent is a major project in housing for Montgomery County, which is in scarce supply
here," said Congressman Jamie
Raskin. "So many people love our beautiful county with its
emphasis on education, diversity, community, and family that we
don't have enough housing for people to live. It's a project like
this that we're going to need to continue to keep building for the
future."
During the ribbon-cutting, Congressman Raskin presented a
declaration to Crescent on behalf of the U.S. House of
Representatives, recognizing Landmark Realty for its longstanding
commitment to providing housing opportunities in the Nation's
Capital area. Montgomery County Councilmember Friedson also
presented a declaration on behalf of the Montgomery County City
Council to Crescent for promoting a vibrant community that
prioritizes transit-oriented housing with special appreciation for
supporting local businesses and enhancing the lives of Montgomery County residents. The certificate
also included an official citation from Maryland Governor Wes
Moore.
"Today, we are standing in what is one of the most vibrant parts
of Montgomery County that is
decades in the making," said Councilmember Andrew Friedson. "The
Bindeman family business isn't real estate, it's community
engagement. Thank you for building on from generation to generation
to build community and to provide housing for residents who need
it."
The grand-opening of the Crescent is a full-circle moment for
Landmark Realty, dating back nearly 50 years when the site was
first purchased by the Bindeman family in the 1970s.
"I strive every day to honor the vision and hard work of past
generations, and I am grateful for the opportunity to make them
proud," said Rob Bindeman, President
of Landmark Realty. "Buildings are brick and mortar, but what we
built here is a real sense of community."
It is this commitment to family and community that keeps
Landmark Realty residents coming back to live in its
properties.
"I used to live here back when it was called Newdale, so I was
excited that this place was rebuilt into an amazing community,"
said Crescent resident Eric Halo. "I
had to come back. I love it here – the location, the staff, all the
amenities. It's just perfect."
Crescent offers modern, renovated living with amenities
including golf course views, an indoor-outdoor fitness center,
rooftop lounge, and a community garden. Over 40% of the apartments
have already been leased since applications opened 10 weeks
ago.
Crescent at Chevy Chase was
designed by Jon Eisen of The Eisen
Group and built by Eichberg Construction with Jeff Parana of
Potomac Development Group serving as Project Development Manager.
Jennifer Farris of Bandura Design
led the interior design. Financing was provided by EagleBank.
