One of the few examples of damage from Hurricane Sandy in Bethesda was the front awning at the former home of Sweet Basil.
The damaged - and, eventually, collapsing - canopy has been an embarrassment on Fairmont Avenue since the super storm passed through in October.
Finally the mess at the now-shuttered Thai restaurant has been cleaned up.
The entire building is scheduled for demolition, and recently found itself as a backdrop for a holiday shopping safety report on WUSA9 news.
Reporter Debra Alfarone discussed safety with a martial arts expert in front of the green complex, and its brown-papered windows did not give viewers a flattering impression of downtown Bethesda. I realize the building is being demolished, but even a vacant storefront is better than brown paper all over the place.
