Council President Berliner on Marriott and Future Parking Issue (VIDEO)

Montgomery County Council President Roger Berliner said he is pleased with Marriott’s decision to locate its new corporate headquarters and flagship hotel on Wisconsin Avenue in Bethesda near Veterans Park.

“You’ve got 3,000 more customers coming in everyday for all those restaurants,” said Berliner. “This is going to be huge, huge deal for that part of Bethesda.”

During a news briefing on Monday, Berliner was asked where people who work in that area today will park.

“That’s an issue,” said Berliner.

In this MyMCMedia Extra video, below, Berliner shares his thoughts on the development deal and explains how the parking issue at Old Georgetown Road and Woodmont Avenue may be resolved.
