Crosswalk signals being readied for reactivation at 8001 Woodmont intersection


It hasn't been possible to cross Woodmont Avenue at St. Elmo Avenue by the new 8001 Woodmont development for several years, as the closed eastern sidewalk left nowhere to cross to. Now that the sidewalk has reopened, new control boxes have been installed, and preparations are being made to reactivate the signals.

I contacted the building about the Trader Joe’s and received this response today:

“As of today, the name grocery retailer has not been finalized.”

12:35: None of the parties involved are going to talk about it on-the-record. It's been that way since 2014.

Longest construction project in downtown Bethesda history.

It's too bad the building can't name the grocery store. It would help excite some potential renters who love trader joes.

Really hoping it IS a Trader Joe's that goes in. Would be nice to be able to take a short walk from my office to get a jar of Cookie Butter to go with my daily apple....
