Year Built

The Americana Centre is a contemporary multifamily development in an urban setting.

It introduced an unprecedented and distinctively modern residential community with a mix of multifamily types and innovative elements to the central core of Rockville in the early 1970s.

The development won a Merit Award in Urban Design from the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), and an award from the American Institute of Planners for Excellence in Overall Planning in 1971.

The Americana Centre was a significant part of Rockville’s Mid-City Urban Renewal Project that included a seven-block, 47-acre area in downtown.

Initiated in the early 1960s, the Mid-City Urban Renewal Project took almost two decades to complete.

The Americana Centre was the key residential component of urban renewal and was a success from the beginning.

It fulfilled the Mid-City Urban Renewal Plan’s goal of bringing multifamily housing into downtown Rockville and brought architectural distinction and modern urban character to the city.

In 2017, The City of Rockville awarded Americana Centre a Historic Designation Status based on the unique mid-century modern elements of the community.
