Rockville continues to ride the wave of redevelopment and economic growth. Every year, more businesses are calling Rockville home and new development projects, like King Farm and Fallsgrove, are building fine, quality homes for Rockville's growing population.

The city's five major development projects and planning sites will continue to add to Rockville's rich culture, economic vitality, and community diversity. While these projects and planning areas vary in location, scope, and design, what ties them together is their unique, mixed-use approach. Residential, retail, entertainment, and office space all play vital parts in the development of these projects.

King Farm is a national model for urban planning, providing space for living, working, shopping, and recreation. The mixed-use community's 430 acres are rich in tradition and history, keeping in harmony with the historic architectural characteristics of the City of Rockville.

Irvington Centre is the 90-acre commercial centerpiece of King Farm, featuring several million square feet of office space. White-tablecloth restaurants and other business-support services occupy the first floors of the three completed commercial buildings at Irvington Centre. Companies located in Irvington Centre experience an urban atmosphere in a suburban setting, with easy access to I-270 and to the Shady Grove Metro subway station.

The Village Center is a 120,000-square-foot retail center located in the heart of King Farm. The shopping center is within walking distance of King Farm's residential and commercial developments.

King Farm's two residential villages, Watkins Pond and Baileys Common, feature single-family homes, townhomes, condominiums, and luxury apartments in an award-winning neotraditional design. The residential communities are intertwined with natural areas including a 12-acre park at the center of Watkins Pond. Developed by the City of Rockville, the park features tennis and basketball courts, softball and soccer fields, playgrounds, and picnic areas.
