Construction of "The Green," the town square at the new Westbard Square development in Bethesda, is proceeding at a steady pace. The "Westbard Square" logo sign that faces Westbard Avenue is now lit after dark, as are the stringed bulbs above The Green. Accent lighting on the curved benches has also been activated, and the swinging benches now have overhead illumination.

| Speakers have been installed around The Green |
Speakers have been installed at strategic spots around The Green, to amplify the sound of live entertainment from the stage, if not for some form of Muzak at other times. There is a search-and-find animal game targeted towards kids, or the young-at-heart. Start your hunt on the beige pavers of the pathways around The Green.
Not all animals are part of the game, however. The space is now accessible to the public - but, not so fast, Fido: Dogs are not allowed on the green's turf surface, according to new posted signage. Let's take another virtual tour of a space where you may be spending some quality time this summer:

What a relief, I thought all those string lights were for a used car sales lot…
Give it sometime and it will degrade to a used car lot.
This is comically disappointing. Developers and County Council should be ashamed of themselves.
Wow, aren't you pleasant.
Are we sure this isn’t really a Putt-Putt golf course?
So this was the "Green Space" that they talked about at the planning meetings with the community and old tenants were going on. As a former store owner in the Old Westbard, enjoying life here in Centerville, Ohio away from Regency and Montgomery county. Enjoy your "Green Space". Thanks Robert for all the post, enjoy reading them and saying Thank God we don't live there anymore.
Good luck convincing them.
Astro-turf? Not very European and posh but appropriate given the lack of community support for this development.
We were told that the retail employees of Giant, Starbucks and Tatte would be able to buy homes in the square. LOL.
