Woodrow Wilson Bridge opens for a gorgeous yacht Saturday morning

Woodrow Wilson Bridge will open tomorrow (Saturday) to allow superyachts to pass.

The bridge is scheduled to open at 4:45am and is estimated to be open for 15-20 minutes.

DC police said in X that the opening was to pass the motor yacht 818. The yacht is the same one that was once owned by former Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz, but reportedly sold last year.

FYI: Woodrow Wilson Bridge will open on February 8th at 4:45am for the Motor Yacht 818 boat.
