Montgomery County DCHA moving to new headquarters in Rockville Monday

The Montgomery County Department of Housing and Community Affairs is moving. On Monday, the DHCA will open its new office at 1401 Rockville Pike, on the 4th floor. Their current office is at 100 Maryland Avenue.

Affordable housing, community development and code enforcement are among the responsibilities of this County agency.

Ourisman Rockmont Chevrolet expected to move to Wintergreen Plaza by November

Construction on the future Ourisman Rockmont Chevrolet dealership at Wintergreen Plaza in Rockville continues, and it's now larger than the renderings suggested. The moving schedule is starting to firm up, as well. A source at the dealership says they will likely have completed their move by this November.

Here's the interesting twist: One might expect the land the dealership currently sits on at 15301 N. Frederick Road to go up for sale, potentially opening up a prime redevelopment opportunity at a major crossroads. Instead, the land is now for lease by Avison Young.

Will the landmark giant U.S. flag make the move south, as well? Stay tuned.

Fleming's Ultimate Garage making the ultimate move on Rockville Pike (Photos)

One of my personal favorite businesses along Rockville Pike, Fleming's Ultimate Garage, is moving. Their new location will be at 660 Loftstrand Lane, in the Southlawn industrial area. This is a decidedly lower-profile spot than their 1400 Rockville Pike location, but hopefully as a specialty business their clientele are willing to go a bit further off the main roads to find them.

Right now, it's hard to miss the '92 Chevy monster truck for sale out in front of the current showroom.

PIER 1 OPENING IN PIKE CENTER (PHOTO)

The new Rockville location of Pier 1 will be in the Pike Center, at Rockville Pike (MD 355) and Bou Avenue. Pier 1 was forced to close its old location at 1590 Rockville Pike, after being displaced by a pending "town center"-sized mixed use project. That project is also forcing Fuddruckers and other businesses out of their existing locations.

Currently, the store is filled with boxes and crates. But a banner out front says, "Open Soon." The lights were on inside Saturday afternoon.
