The Pinnacle, North Bethesda, Maryland
The 17-story Pinnacle community is under construction in North Bethesda, Md., in the heart of the Rockville Pike Corridor—a suburban area outside Washington, D.C., that’s rapidly transforming into a more walkable, mixed-use cityscape.
Situated on a site of less than 1 acre, The Pinnacle will include 191 independent living, assisted living, and memory care units above 15,000 square feet of street-level retail. Residents of The Pinnacle will have direct access to the adjacent Pike & Rose District, a 24-acre mixed-use neighborhood offering shops, restaurants, parks, and entertainment venues.
Urban senior living design
Materials including red brick, aluminum composite panels, and glass accents reference the architectural language of the surrounding Pike & Rose District. Terraces and elevated dining areas create welcoming outdoor spaces, while active ground-floor retail activates the streetscape.
The garage façade incorporates artwork on mesh panels that celebrates the neighborhood’s vibrant public art culture.
Designed by architecture firm PRDG (Dallas) and interior designer Faulkner Design Group (Dallas), the community is focused on wellness, connection, and urban living.
Wellness design at The Pinnacle
Expected to open in 2026, the 390,000-square-foot community will offer a full suite of hospitality-inspired amenities, including a spa, salon, indoor pool, and fourth-floor wellness lounge with a “smart glass” wall that separates the indoor pool from the wellness lounge for privacy.
Connection and social interaction are fostered through gathering spaces distributed throughout the tower, creating distinct destinations on different levels rather than concentrating amenities in a single area. The entry lobby’s four-story atrium visually connects to the Level 4 wellness lounge upon walking through the front door.
Dining offerings will include a bistro, bar/lounge and a Sky Lounge on the 17th-floor, featuring floor-to-ceiling glass, an elevated terrace, and stylish seating.
