BAINBRIDGE BETHESDA CONSTRUCTION UPDATE (PHOTOS)

Construction crews building the future Bainbridge Bethesda luxury apartment building are making progress after early delays.  As regular readers recall, when I broke that story, excavation had caused an adjacent building on Fairmont Avenue to become unstable.

With that issue no longer holding up work, the site's crane has been busy moving concrete from cement mixers on Fairmont down into the chasm.  The beginnings of the 17 story tower's foundation can be seen.

There's still a long way to go, and it will be quite amazing if the building is actually finished by next summer.

To Bainbridge's credit, their crane (whose tower can be seen in this picture) has red warning lights on it at night.  The crane over at the future site of That 70s Building (a.k.a. The Gallery at Bethesda) is unlit.
