Bethesda then introduces a new street pattern — Old Georgetown Road, Cordell Avenue, Bethesda Lane and Woodmont Avenue — with Blanca Flor Silver Gallery's jewelry and gifts, a denim-bar women's boutique at 10215 Old Georgetown Road, the Denim Bar's men's and women's apparel on Cordell, The Little Shoe Box and Ginger on Bethesda Lane, home goods and gifts on Woodmont, an appointment-only women's store on Cindy Lane, Deja New's vintage on Old Georgetown Road, and vintage accessories on Saint Elmo Avenue.

Bethesda Lane and the Bethesda Row Pattern
Bethesda's listings cluster the way modern Bethesda was rebuilt: around Bethesda Lane and Woodmont Avenue, where The Little Shoe Box (women's shoes, 7134 Bethesda Lane) and Ginger (women's apparel, 7114 Bethesda Lane) sit doors apart, with home goods and gifts across on Woodmont. A second, older Bethesda runs along Old Georgetown Road — the silver gallery, the denim boutique and Deja New's vintage — and a third pocket sits on Cordell and Saint Elmo Avenues, home to the Denim Bar and the vintage accessories listing. Knowing which of the three pockets your store is in is the practical key to this page; Bethesda rewards parking once and walking a pocket rather than driving between all three.
Denim Gets Two Listings — and Deserves Them
Unusually for this directory, one specialty appears twice on page 8: denim. The boutique at 10215 Old Georgetown Road is parenthesized as a denim bar in its listing, and the Denim Bar proper, on Cordell Avenue, lists men's and women's apparel. Denim bars — stores built around fitting premium jeans with staff guidance — were a defining boutique format of their era, and Bethesda supported two of them within a mile. Alongside them, the page's vintage thread (Deja New, the Saint Elmo accessories store and, on page 9, the Op Shop and Mustard Seed) makes Bethesda the directory's deepest secondhand market outside Georgetown. Page 9 continues Bethesda before moving to Clarendon and Pentagon Row in Arlington.
