CHEVY CHASE, Md., April 25, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Property management and development company Landmark Realty hosted a grand-opening for the much-anticipated Crescent at Chevy Chase on Saturday, April 20, 2024, marking the opening of one of the first Purple-Line oriented developments. Over 200 attendees gathered to witness the ribbon-cutting of the 111-unit building and to celebrate the Crescent's vital role in contributing to a solution for the DC area's housing crisis.

Notable attendees at the ribbon-cutting included Congressman Jamie Raskin, U.S. Representative for Maryland's 8th congressional district, Montgomery County Councilmember Andrew Friedson, and former NFL quarterback Gus Frerotte.

"Crescent is a major project in housing for Montgomery County, which is in scarce supply here," said Congressman Jamie Raskin. "So many people love our beautiful county with its emphasis on education, diversity, community, and family that we don't have enough housing for people to live. It's a project like this that we're going to need to continue to keep building for the future."

During the ribbon-cutting, Congressman Raskin presented a declaration to Crescent on behalf of the U.S. House of Representatives, recognizing Landmark Realty for its longstanding commitment to providing housing opportunities in the Nation's Capital area. Montgomery County Councilmember Friedson also presented a declaration on behalf of the Montgomery County City Council to Crescent for promoting a vibrant community that prioritizes transit-oriented housing with special appreciation for supporting local businesses and enhancing the lives of Montgomery County residents. The certificate also included an official citation from Maryland Governor Wes Moore.

"Today, we are standing in what is one of the most vibrant parts of Montgomery County that is decades in the making," said Councilmember Andrew Friedson. "The Bindeman family business isn't real estate, it's community engagement. Thank you for building on from generation to generation to build community and to provide housing for residents who need it."

The grand-opening of the Crescent is a full-circle moment for Landmark Realty, dating back nearly 50 years when the site was first purchased by the Bindeman family in the 1970s.

"I strive every day to honor the vision and hard work of past generations, and I am grateful for the opportunity to make them proud," said Rob Bindeman, President of Landmark Realty. "Buildings are brick and mortar, but what we built here is a real sense of community."

It is this commitment to family and community that keeps Landmark Realty residents coming back to live in its properties.

"I used to live here back when it was called Newdale, so I was excited that this place was rebuilt into an amazing community," said Crescent resident Eric Halo. "I had to come back. I love it here ? the location, the staff, all the amenities. It's just perfect."

Crescent offers modern, renovated living with amenities including golf course views, an indoor-outdoor fitness center, rooftop lounge, and a community garden. Over 40% of the apartments have already been leased since applications opened 10 weeks ago.

Crescent at Chevy Chase was designed by Jon Eisen of The Eisen Group and built by Eichberg Construction with Jeff Parana of Potomac Development Group serving as Project Development Manager. Jennifer Farris of Bandura Design led the interior design. Financing was provided by EagleBank.
