White Flint Mall was a premier shopping mall in Bethesda, Maryland with an unusual combination of shopping and entertainment opportunities including stores such as Lord & Taylor, Bloomingdale’s, Borders Books & Music Superstore, Dave & Buster’s, Loews Cineplex, the Cheesecake Factory, P. F. Chang’s China Bistro and Bertucci’s. The White Flint Mall site will be dramatically redesigned and transformed into a much different place.
Much of the project will be built on the mall’s expansive surface parking lots and will become a walkable community with good access to public transportation. The timeline for the development has not yet been announced.
The new mixed development project will feature residential, office, retail and public uses including a large central plaza, a 2.3 acre addition to the existing White Flint Neighborhood Park, and an elementary school site. The White Flint Mall project will front Rockville Pike and the eastern part of Executive Boulevard, which, along with Nebel Street, will be extended into the site. A hotel is planned along Executive Boulevard, as well as offices. Residences are planned to include a mix of mid-rise and high-rise multi-family buildings. A series of new streets will be built to include ample sidewalks and attractive streetscapes that encourage walking. The majority of parking for the development will be underground.
