Marriott's Move to Bethesda 

Bethesda's premiere condominium welcomes its new neighbor. 

The world’s largest hotel company has officially announced plans to move its headquarters to 7750 Wisconsin Avenue, in the heart of Bethesda. Marriott International Headquarters has drawn up blueprints for the 22-story office building and 12-story hotel, breaking ground during the summer of 2018, with construction scheduled to be completed in October 2021 and July 2022, respectively.

Bethesda’s population will swell by 3,500 each business day as the offices fill with employees commuting from around the area.

The same can be said about why living at The Lauren is the perfect mix of luxury and urban living. Residents at The Lauren are able to experience the ease of a walk down the street to some of the finest shops and restaurants in the area, while having to go only to another floor of the building for a gorgeous wine lounge or rooftop terrace.

"A Taste of Manhattan" – The Washington Post celebrates The Lauren

The innovation and sophistication of The Lauren is making waves beyond the borders of Bethesda.

The modern elegance, eco-friendly design, and unparalleled amenities – coupled with its location in the heart of downtown Bethesda – rival any luxury condominium residence anywhere.

In a new feature from the Washington Post, Michele Lerner and Deborah K. Dietsch explore Bethesda’s newest condominium offering, and offer residents the chance to share the experience of life at The Lauren:

“We lived in a single-family home in Rockville for 40 years, but we’re both from New York City and wanted a walking lifestyle and a more urban environment. We looked everywhere over a few years and realized that Bethesda worked well because we can be close to our friends and to the things we like to do. We hardly ever use our car.”
