Last October we let you know Dunkin’ will be taking over the space that was previously home to $2.49 Cleaners, at 12196 Georgia Ave. in Wheaton-Glenmont, on the same block as Trippy Tacos and Seafood in the Buff and near Popeyes. Now we know that a $500K permit has been granted for construction to begin on the space, per Maryland Newsletters.
An opening timeframe is not yet available for the store, but it appears the store will have a drive-thru or walk-up window based on the renderings in the featured photo.
Dunkin’ recently opened a location in the 1,500 SF back half of the building that was previously home to Capital One Bank building at 9761 Traville Gateway Drive. Two new Dunkin’ locations are coming to Chevy Chase. One will be located at 2 Wisconsin Circle, at the Chevy Chase Metro building. It is slated to take over suite 100, which was recently home to Karin’s Cafe (currently listed as temporarily closed on Google). The other Chevy Chase location will be at the Giant gas station/grocery pick-up center at 8500 Connecticut Avenue for a second upcoming location in Chevy Chase. Part of the existing building is being converted to a Dunkin’, but it does not appear that this location will have a drive-thru. Opening dates for both Chevy Chase locations are not yet available. Dunkin’ has also submitted a site plan proposing to turn an existing building at 17700 Muncaster Rd. (off of Muncaster Mill Rd.) into a new Dunkin’ location in Derwood and will be opening a store at 8455 Fenton St in Downtown Silver Spring, taking over an empty retail space on the ground level of the Central Silver Spring apartment complex.
