Plans for expansion
Silver Spring, MD
During the redevelopment of downtown Silver Spring, Maryland, a plan was proposed to build a second Birchmere site, slated to be an $8 million, 800-seat venue.[1] After years of negotiations, the deal was rejected on July 25, 2007. At the time, Birchmere management claimed that Montgomery County officials breached a contractual agreement with the music venue,[2] but these claims were disputed by the developers and government officials who denied any contractual obligation for development.[1]
