It's a bittersweet day here at 5151 Wisconsin Avenue – FOX 5's home for decades.
Our operation has moved into the Carr Properties Wilson building, a new and stunning high-tech complex, which will no doubt help to cement FOX 5's position as the DMV's news leader for decades to come.
The new building, in the heart of Bethesda, is home to a 23-story office tower and contains retail and residential space.
