A new look for Elm Street at Bethesda Row (Photos)

The widening and makeover of the sidewalk along Elm Street at Bethesda Row appears to be complete. A variety of new seating has been provided, as well as new street trees, lighting and brighter pavers. Tall planters now separate much of the sidewalk from the traffic lanes along Elm Street between Arlington Road and Woodmont Avenue. Bethesda Row property owner Federal Realty has been updating the pedestrian gathering spaces around the development, including a new plaza and interactive fountain outside of Anthropologie that are expected to debut for this summer.
