LOCAL ARCHITECT TO GIVE BETHESDA'S SAAH BUILDING A FACELIFT

The Saah Building in the 7800 block of Old Georgetown Road is about to get an exterior makeover. That primarily-retail structure, which has a new vacancy I reported on two days ago, will get a facelift from the firm of Steven J. Karr AIA, Inc. Karr's firm is behind several projects currently underway, in the works, or completed in downtown Bethesda's Woodmont Triangle. The most prominent of those is the busy Norfolk-Cordell II building, home to Smashburger, Roof, and a Dunkin' Donuts/Baskin Robbins store.
