[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP seems to be referring to Friendship Heights retail. Most of Chevy Chase is not that close to Friendship Heights, and is actually closer to downtown Bethesda, where there's plenty of retail. I have friends who live in nice houses Chevy Chase and who can walk to downtown Bethesda in under ten minutes. Even if you live in the part of Chevy Chase close to FH, downtown Bethesda is a 5-10 minute drive.[/quote]

OP was talking about Connecticut just south of the circle. [/quote]

Which still isn't close to most of Chevy Chase. I guess I'm missing why Chevy Chase needs its own retail and dining hub, when downtown Bethesda is right there.[/quote]

Chevy Chase retail has gone down hill. Maybe it was overbuilt to begin with, but there has been decline. While the decline may have been accelerated by COVID, it is not entirely attributable to COVID. Maybe there have been shifts in demographic patterns that are negatively impacting the area or the area doesn’t attract spendy wealthy flashy types anymore. Maybe they want to stay in Georgetown or wherever. Let’s hope our probing questions and insights allow Chevy Chase retail to br restored to its former greatness. After all, 9 Supreme Court justices, 21 billionaires, and 43 members of the royal family call Chevy Chase home! [/quote]
