While the Montgomery County Department of Libraries has yet to detail an itemized list of the damage to the Little Falls Library caused by a burst pipe last month, they are now saying the planned January opening is being pushed back to Spring 2017. In recent days, a trench has been dug down the incline from the street level up to the rear parking lot grade to the left of the building. A large pipe could be seen in the trench.
Meanwhile, a second Bethesda library closed for renovations - the Davis Library - is also on-track for a Spring opening. New flooring is down, new restrooms are completed, and the first floor of the building has been repainted, according to Anita Vassallo, the former manager of the library.

Should stay closed. Brings too much traffic and MS-13 teens to the neighborhood.
8:42AM you have a singular wit
The trench was dug over a month ago.
8:59: Great. I didn't say it was or wasn't dug over a month ago.
Sorry, didn't mean to upset you. I think you are performing a valuable service and read the blog every day. (My definition of "recent days" must be less expansive than yours. Either way, it's a real shame for the delay. At least we will still have a library there.
7:06: No apology necessary; I wasn't upset. It looks like there is still major work going on outside the library as of yesterday.
