The Collection at Chevy Chase

The Collection is a set of shops and restaurants near the Friendship Heights Metro station on Wisconsin Avenue in Chevy Chase, Maryland, along the Washington, D.C.-Maryland border.[2][3][4] The area was developed by the Chevy Chase Land Company, founded in 1890 by U.S. Senator Francis G. Newlands, who acquired a great deal of property in the D.C. area. The shopping area now called The Collection was built in the 1950s, one of the two first strip shopping centers in suburban Maryland. The 194,646-square-foot shopping center shopping was updated between 2017 and June 2019. The updates shifted its focus from luxury retail establishments to casual restaurants and stores.[5]
