RSS FeedWe’ll Miss You NPR
In the past few weeks, National Public Radio (NPR) announced its intent to leave its Penn Quarter home and move to 1111 North Capitol Street (cross street: L Street) in NoMa (or North of Massachusetts). The NoMa BID, which also calls itself Capitol Hill North, has a press relaease on their web site describing details of the move. NoMa is adjacent to our neighborhood to the northeast and is an underutilized part of DC increasing its use density through the adoption of mixed use projects including affordable housing. NPR received $40 million in incentives from the city government to stay in DC and not move to Montgomery County. Other recent announcements include the Department of Justice’s moving to NoMa and Harris Teeter’s committment to opening a grocery store. We’ll certainly miss the three color NPR logo on the Massachusetts Avenue landscape; the planned move will take place in 2012.
Hat tips go to PQ Living readers Hans, Adam and Cheryl on this one.
