After a $22 million renovation, Silver Spring Plaza has been transformed with a gleaming curtain wall glass facade and features all-new mechanical and electrical systems, lobbies, tenant areas and ADA compatibility. This Class A office building offers excellent visibility and access to the Silver Spring Metrorail and MARC commuter station, Washington, DC and the Capital Beltway (Interstate 495). Connected to the recently renovated Silver Spring Holiday Inn by a lovely landscaped plaza, the building is a short walk from Discovery Communications’ new headquarters, as well as the Downtown Silver Spring mixed-use development. Building tenants have easy access to the Holiday Inn’s meeting rooms, exercise facilities and restaurant. Also adjacent to the building is a newly renovated 1,200 space public garage.

Other builders and developers are hitting the high notes as well: Atlantic Realty remodeled a high-rise office building at 8757 Georgia Avenue, which is headquarters to Social & Scientific Systems, and has renovated two more office buildings nearby.

Lee Development, Zalco Realty and the Tower Companies also are long-time champions of Silver Spring that will capitalize on companies seeking reasonably priced office space in an excellent location with outstanding amenities.

Another conductor directing the swelling symphony in Silver Spring is The Peterson Companies. The company’s highly acclaimed performance is leading the Downtown Silver Spring partnership in bringing national retailers such as Borders Books & Music and Pier 1 to the downtown, convincing them that the community was under-served. That argument was persuasive: all the stores in the first center – Whole Foods Market, Baja Fresh, Strosniders, Hollywood Video and Sprint – are now enjoying sales that vie for the annual top spot within their companies.
