A few blocks of the Woodmont Triangle and Bethesda Row areas are closed to provide restaurant seating. The Bethesda Urban Partnership is behind the “Streetery” concept to allow some hopefully safer pandemic seating options for diners in greater Bethesdonia.
The idea is to get takeout and go eat it at one of the more spread-out street tables. Tables will be cleaned after each use.

Black Lives Matter Police Reform Rally In Bethesda
There was a well attended rally at the Connie Morella Public Library on Arlington Road in Bethesda on June 2, 2020. The peaceful protest called for unity, police reform, and prayers for those who have been killed by police.
Police blocked-off streets around the rally site and directed traffic.
Most of the demonstrators were wearing masks and trying to maintain reasonable spacing amidst the crowd.
