Work continues on the public-private partnership project
located on the former parking lot (Lot 31) at the corner
of Bethesda and Woodmont avenues in
Bethesda . About 80 percent of the excavation work is
now completed, which includes blasting to remove the hard, dense rock. Blasting is expected to be complete by the
end of February, weather permitting.
The first of three tower cranes is being erected on the
site. Some concrete pours and work on foundations, footings and a permanent
drainage system will begin in March. Once the concrete operation begins, trucks
will use the Bethesda Avenue
construction entrance, in addition to the Woodmont
Avenue entrance.
