Jewelry Exchange building demolished in Bethesda


The Jewelry Exchange is gone! A demolition crew has razed the building at 7747 Old Georgetown Road. This is the first of several structures to fall, as the corner with St. Elmo Avenue is prepared for construction of a new apartment tower. No word yet if any of the workers were lucky enough to find one of those "thousands of GIA diamonds" in the rubble...

Not in favor of every corner being turned into a massive, mixed -use building as well as the old charm of Bethesda being erased. But my gosh, is Georgetown Grill horrible. So, that won't be missed..
