Downtown Silver Spring set for $10M renovation. And a bowling lounge addition.

Downtown Silver Spring is set for a $10 million overhaul, to include a new bowling venue and lounge, a new public plaza, public art and “dynamic green space,” the development owners say.

“We’re excited to, once again, lead the charge with a reinvigorated core featuring new shops, restaurants and gathering places for the community that reflect the lifestyles of those who live, work and visit Downtown Silver Spring,” Paul Weinschenk, Peterson’s president of retail, said in a statement. Peterson developed DTSS two decades ago.

The new tenants are led by a second location of The Eleanor, a 7,700-square-foot bowling lounge, bar and grille — currently found in NoMa. The venue will serve brunch, lunch and dinner, host two happy hours per weekday and offer six bowling lanes, more than a dozen arcade games and multiple outdoor patios.

Downtown Silver Spring’s other new tenants include Roll By Goodyear, Matchbox (now open), and wine bar Locavino. Lebanese Taverna, meanwhile, will relocate to a new location within DTSS and rebrand as LEB TAV, while Ulta will also relocate. And Copper Canyon Grill will undergo a renovation later this year.

The renovation comes as Silver Spring undergoes massive change with the exit of Discovery Communications Inc. (NASDAQ: DISCA), which has decamped for New York City. Potomac-based Foulger-Pratt and partner Cerberus Capital Management acquired the 550,000-square-foot, 10-story One Discovery Place last year for $70 million. They are launching a major repositioning to lure multiple tenants to the building, to include Children’s National Health System, which recently inked a deal to lease 140,000 square feet across four floors.
