NEW RENDERINGS OF BETHESDA FIRE DEPARTMENT'S POTENTIAL REDEVELOPMENT (PHOTOS)

Two new renderings showing a potential redevelopment of the Bethesda Fire Department station at Wisconsin Avenue and Bradley Boulevard have been posted on the new downtown Bethesda development map. It appears to show a greater building height over the fire equipment bays and driveway area where trucks would exit onto Bradley Boulevard. That is a different configuration than the more direct Wisconsin Avenue access the fire station has today.

The second rendering gives an idea of how such a new building would back up to the single-family-home residential neighborhood directly behind it. Fire Department officials have not yet proposed a specific plan for the site, but are evaluating options to fund a full renovation or replacement of the aging firehouse.
