The closure of SunTrust bank at 7535 Old Georgetown Road in the Element 28 apartment tower has opened an opportunity for another business to move into the high-traffic location. Rappaport has listed the space for lease, which is 3500 square feet, and situated directly across from the Bethesda Metro station.

I sure hope this leases to something more exciting than a bank. Tons of perimeter glass should make this a high visibility location. The adjacent recessed plaza area could be a nice place for sheltered outdoor dining. I hope the building owner realizes how important a great restaurant or cafe can be to the tenants that live above, and perhaps even offers to subsidize a deal to get a nice amenity addition to the area.
How about a Shake Shack in downtown Bethesda? Perhaps a Flemings Steak House. Maybe a Ted’s Bulletin? Or perhaps a Big Bowl Asian Fusion restaurant?
There's already a Ted's Bulletin (sort of) in Bethesda. Ensemble on Cordell offers some of Ted's menu.
How about a nice bakery, now that La Madeleine's no longer across the street?
It would probably smell better than some of the other culinary options to most people living above it, too.
@2:18 PM Have you tried The Red Bandana, Tout De Sweet, Henry's Sweet Shop, all in or around the triangle, or Tatte just a short walk away? There is a plethora of bakeries in town already. Oh, and don't forget Paul's.
