Heated tents return to Bethesda Streetery for winter
While Bethesda will slightly warm up today through Saturday, several cold snaps in recent weeks have decimated the use of the two Bethesda Streetery outdoor dining areas in downtown Bethesda. Heated tents are now returning for a second Covid Winter, as seen here at the Streetery on Woodmont Avenue at Bethesda Row. Omicron and the ongoing debate over just how much safer an enclosed tent is versus dining indoors aside, the structures are pretty much the only way to keep the Streeteries going until spring.
And they'll remain empty as they were last year. Please God, remove these tents and open the streets back up. No, they don't want to do that, cars are bad.
