The table tennis and pickleball company will occupy a total of 35,407 square feet at the Pike &amp; Rose office building owned by Federal Realty Investment Trust. Transwestern represented the tenant, while JLL negotiated on behalf of the landlord.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>JOOLA&#8217;s future North Bethesda footprint will comprise its corporate headquarters, currently at 2101 Gaither Road in Rockville, Md., alongside street-level retail space and a pickleball studio space. The firm joins a tenant roster including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/choice-hotels-new-home\/\">Choice Hotels International Inc.<\/a> and Sodexo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-peeking-inside-915-meeting\">Peeking inside 915 Meeting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Federal Realty broke ground on the 276,000-square-foot trophy office building in 2021 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/federal-realty-tops-out-dc-area-office-building\/\">topped it out in 2023<\/a>. Clark Construction served as general contractor, while Gensler provided architecture services. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recently completed property is part of Pike &amp; Rose, a 24-acre mixed-use neighborhood featuring 558,000 square feet of office space, 260,000 square feet of laboratory space and more than 400,000 square feet of retail and entertainment, together with a 177-key hotel and 864 residential units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ ALSO<\/strong>: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.commercialsearch.com\/news\/property-management-success-attracting-and-retaining-gen-z-office-workers\/\">Property Management Success: Attracting and Retaining Gen Z Office Workers<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color has-alpha-channel-opacity has-cyan-bluish-gray-background-color has-background is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>The 16-story building at 915 Meeting St. is pursuing LEED Gold certification.

Downtown Washington, D.C., is roughly 12 miles south.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Transwestern Executive Vice Presidents Gary Schlager and Chris Coccaro assisted JOOLA.
