MCFRS Investigating Water Leak In Bethesda Garage

6820 Wisconsin AvenueMontgomery County fire fighters are on the scene of an apparent water leak in a downtown Bethesda garage.

Water is reportedly leaking into the underground garage at 6820 Wisconsin Ave., the facility that provides parking for Staples, the Adagio condominiums, a CVS and a number of other retail tenants.

MCFRS reported the leaks at about 3:45 p.m. and have been on scene since. One MCFRS vehicle remains in the far right lane of southbound Wisconsin Avenue near its intersection with Bradley Lane.

A building inspector is reportedly en route.

The same garage had water problems in November 2012, when a water main replacement project led to two to three feet of water pooling up in the lowest level of the six-floor garage, damaging about five cars.
