Marriott HQ excavators broke a Woodmont Grill water line

The development team building the relocated Marriott International headquarters at 7750 Wisconsin Avenue acknowledge that their excavators broke a water line leading into Woodmont Grill, a restaurant adjacent to their construction site. Marriott HQ representatives say the water line was "previously unknown" to them, until it was ruptured during digging. They arranged to fix the broken water line overnight last night.

    Is this from a press release or a notice on the building?

    Did this result in Woodmont Grill being closed yesterday? If so, is it still closed? When is it predicted to re-open?

  2. 5:52: This is from the Marriott team. They did not say if the line rupture required them to be closed at any point, but if it was repaired last night, they should be open today in any case.

    Do you have any pictures of the break? Or of the work being done to repair it?

    From the Woodmont Grill website, it looks like they weren't affected at all.

    If a situation that doesn't actually affect anyone is reported on a blog that no one reads, is it actually "news'?
