RSS FeedDC BID SAMs Leave F Street
The Downtown DC Business Improvement District (“BID”) Safety and Maintenance (“SAM”) team which has been at 1006 F ST NW for years, recently moved to a new location. The BID SAMs are now at 1229 New York AVE.
Is this part of the larger movement to develop that corner? As we’ve noted before (citing an Examiner article) the area is scheduled to house an 11 story building.
First the Waffle Shop left, then B & K Newsstand, and now the DC SAMs are gone. Is Joe’s Souvenirs at 10th & F the last holdout before a new project breaks ground at that corner?

Wasn’t the B & K Newstand shuttered due to legal reasons. Or did the legal trouble come after it was shut down?
Yes, that site will certainly be redeveloped eventually, but I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for a groundbreaking ceremony. As evidenced by the big hole in the ground two blocks up from there, the market for financing real estate development is not exactly vibrant right now…
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
it was only a matter of time before I thought this might happen. that’s one of the last “old school DC” parcels in the core of downtown.
