Dive Brief:

• Restoration of Washington’s infamous Watergate hotel has stopped after a three-story parking garage collapsed on Friday and injured two construction workers.

• Crews are stabilizing the parking structure while rescuers search for possible victims, although officials have said they do not believe anyone was buried under the rubble.

• The eight-year, $125 million renovation of the hotel, which will forever be known as the site of a break-in that eventually led President Richard Nixon to resign, is scheduled to finish this summer.

Dive Insight:

More than 250 construction workers have been sidelined during the parking garage’s repair and the investigation into what led it to collapse. Only stabilization and recovery crews are allowed to work, and a restart date for renovations has not been set.
