Here’s what we were reading last week about neighborhood news in DC. Have neighborhood thoughts? Leave them in the comments!
Penn Quarter – Fiola, an Italian restaurant taking the former space held by Le Paradou at 678 Indiana Ave NW (but in the same building as the 601 Penn Ave condo) 601 Pennsylvania Ave NW, plans to open in April. A sure sign is a posting for job openings. We hope to know more precision soon. [Washington DC Jobz (sic)] & [Prince of Petworth] & [WaPo (older link for reference)] Hat tip: Cheryl
Penn Quarter – The Carpetbaggers is showing at Ford’s Theatre and one of our favorite sites offers up a review. [We Love DC]
Penn Quarter/Downtown – The annual Downtown Neighborhood Survey is up online and available to be taken. Please consider taking it as the neighborhood needs good economic and demographic data to continue improving our state of affairs. [Downtown DC Busines Improvement District]
Downtown – The Downtown Neighborhood Association (DNA) will hold its monthly meeting tomorrow, February 8 starting at 6:30 pm at the Calvary Baptist Church on 8th Street NW.

Penn Quarter/Capitol Hill – The ANC6C full commission meeting is Wednesday, February 9 starting at 7 pm at the Heritage Foundation on Massachusetts Ave NW. Lots of good stuff on the agenda this month. [ANC 6C Website]

I took the (Work in Pen Quarter / Live Elsewhere) BID survey and was impressed in the quality of questions asked. I feel it is important that those who manage an area understand what is important to those who live there, and to a degree those who work there. While this was the first time I took the survey, I’ll follow Penn Quarter Living to be reminded to take it again in the future.
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
