Rockville’s historic train station to become adaptive use site
A trio led by advertising executive Adams plans to restore Rockville’s vacant old train station as adaptive reuse rather than a museum. The project faces high restoration costs and multi-level approvals but aims to create a restaurant and retail or office space near Carroll Creek. The fire hall in the historic district also seeks tax credits, with ACM awarding the project. The city hopes to auction five surplus properties, including Seeger Hardware Store, now eyed by Horizon Development and architects Milli ner and Williams.
