About Parkside Condominium:
Parkside is a large garden-style apartment community bordering Rock Creek Park in Bethesda, MD. We have 954 units within 102 buildings spread over 69 acres, and without any through roadways, the atmosphere is that of a tree-filled enclave—one noted for its simple living and superb location (within walking distance of a Metro station and the world-class Strathmore Music Center, easy access to major interstates, and minutes away from downtown Bethesda just outside the District of Columbia).
Built in five phases between 1954 and 1966 as a rental apartment community, Parkside was converted into a condominium community in 1981. Property amenities include two tennis courts, three swimming pools, a ballfield, two clubhouses, grill and picnic area and a tot-lot playing area.
Volunteerism at Parkside is active: a diverse group of residents, acting both as members of standing committees and as individuals, have developed numerous community engagement programs, including a Community Garden, Garden Boxes, Parkside Village, Inc. (neighbor helping neighbor network), Book Club, and informal groups such as parent networks, walking groups, and volleyball club.
Parkside has had a long history of enjoyable living for its residents. We are working to advance well-established practices, to elevate them to a level that will set Parkside apart from the ordinary. We look to provide the highest level of performance and seek a Maintenance Technician to be a part of our team in this process.
