Work continues to create a high-end sales center for the now-famous high-end condos "from the several millions" at The Lauren in Bethesda.
Of course, ground has yet to be broken for the building itself. But pre-construction customers will be hosted in this existing home on the property, along Hampden Lane and Woodmont Avenue.
Complete with flatscreen home theater.
The most talked-about luxury building in Bethesda, The Lauren on Hampden Lane, is not yet under construction. But a sales office will open in an old house on the Woodmont Avenue side of the site in the near future.
The Lauren's luxury condos "from the several millions" near Bethesda Row have some less-urban competition just outside the Beltway in Bethesda.
TTR Sotheby's has announced that all pre-construction units in the posh development are sold out.
Before you spill any Grey Poupon in the back seat of your Rolls Royce, rest assured that additional units will be available.
A sales office will eventually open on site. Right now, sales and inquiries are by appointment only.
This development has a historical connection with closer-in neighborhoods, and downtown Bethesda.
Quarry Springs is rising atop a former - surprise! - quarry at 8101 River Road, across from Carderock Springs. This quarry provided the stones used on many facades of homes and businesses throughout Bethesda. One is the former C&P Telephone building across Wisconsin Avenue from the new Post Office. Many single family homes in Bethesda's residential neighborhoods have these stones, as well.
At one time there was constant truck traffic and manual labor at the quarry. Now the work and trucks are related to the massive residential development taking shape there.
