Gaithersburg, MD Homes For Sale
A leading example of New Urbanism in Washington Metro is the city of Gaithersburg, Maryland. What does that even mean? New Urbanism is a design movement that developed in the 1980s, embracing the integration of urban and suburban sectors, walkable neighborhoods, appealing greenspace, and strong economic factors. With 63,000 residents spread out over 10 square miles, Gaithersburg also has a large inventory of homes for sale.
This popular city dates back to 1765 and was incorporated in 1878. In other words, it wasn’t wholly planned during the modern era. As a result, homes for sale present a nice blend of old and new. Many of the older structures can be found in a historic district known as Olde Town. That said, the community’s major expansion took place post-WWII and it continues to evolve with new Metro-oriented transit development.
