Primarily residential, Chevy Chase adjoins [[Friendship Heights]], a popular shopping district.

The body of water furnished water to the coal-fired generators that powered the streetcars of the Land Company's [[Rock Creek Railway]]. The streetcar soon became vital to the community; it connected workers to the city, and even ran errands for residents.

In 1964, [[Arthur Krock]] wrote an article for ''[[The New York Times]]'' alleging that the Chevy Chase Country Club barred "Negroes" and "one ethnic group of Caucasians" from membership.
