Royal Cleaners closes in downtown Bethesda (Photos)

Royal Cleaners has closed at 7028 Wisconsin Avenue, next to Golden City restaurant. The space is now for lease. Hopefully everybody had a chance to pick up their dry cleaning before it closed!

MILAE CLEANERS VACATES DOWNTOWN BETHESDA LOCATION (PHOTO)

Milae Cleaners, a dry cleaning business that not long ago moved into a small building at Battery Lane and Woodmont Avenue, has abruptly vacated the premises.

The corner will soon be home to the Woodmont View luxury apartments.

A sign posted says they have moved to 5050 River Road in Bethesda. Which is actually not exactly true, as a Milae Cleaners has been operating at 5050 River Road for many years. I think this means they are consolidating, rather than "moving."

For Bethesda history buffs, 5050 River Road was once home to Mario's Pizza, which was a childhood favorite of mine.

WOODMONT DRY CLEANERS MOVES INTO FORMER TATTOO SPACE, RENAMED MILAE CLEANERS (PHOTOS)

The dry cleaning business next to the Woodmont Market has moved diagonally across the street into the building at the Northwest corner of Woodmont and Battery Lane.

One big advantage downtown residents will like: the new location has its own surface parking lot!

This new location's signage refers to it as Milae Cleaners. Milae already has one location in Bethesda, on River Road.
