Mazza Gallerie
Defunct mall in Washington, D.C. and Chevy Chase, Maryland, U.S.
About
Mazza Gallerie was an upscale shopping mall located along Wisconsin Avenue in the Friendship Heights neighborhood of northwest Washington, D.C. at the Maryland border. Opened in 1977, it had 300,000 square feet (28,000 m2) of retail space on three levels, a parking garage, and a direct connection to the Friendship Heights station of the Washington Metro. The last retail business closed in December 2022. The building was partially demolished in 2023 and rebuilt as Mazza, a 6-story apartment building, with retail on the ground floor.
The mall was named after Louise Mazza, whose daughter Olga inherited the land before it was developed. When the family sold the property, they attached a covenant requiring any future development to be called Mazza and to display a picture of Louise Mazza.
