We haven’t done Heard In The ‘Hood in a while so here’s what we were noodling over recently about neighborhood news in DC. Have something to add? Leave it in the comments!
Chinatown – Pho DC on H Street opens their downstairs deli to sell steamed buns and bubble tea. Mmm…steamed buns! [Prince of Petworth]
Mount Vernon Triangle – The Sixth Engine in the 400 block of Mass Ave now has their patio open for outside dining. More yum! [The Triangle]
Downtown – The New York Times laments the turning of the old 9:30 Club into…gasp…a J. Crew store (this is the one going in on F St NW). Oh, the irony of it all! [New York Times]
Penn Quarter – The Protein Bar must now officially be moving into the neighborhood at 7th and D St NW. They posted the news on their blog! They are also targeting Ballston in Virginia and have launched a DC store Twitter feed. [Protein Bar Chicago – blog] & [Protein Bar DC Twitter]
Georgetown – For all you native Washingtonians who used to hit G’town in the 80s, Poseurs nightclub which was at the corner of M and 34th St NW is having a reunion on August 4 at the Rock & Roll Hotel on H St NE. DJ Mohawk Adam who spun tunes for over two decades at area clubs is on the bill. [WTOP]
Mount Vernon Triangle – Will the beach bar concept work on an empty lot in the 600 block of New York Ave? Will MTV come out with a show called DC Shore featuring twenty-somethings living in a nearby Mount Vernon Triangle condo who hang out at the beach? I think we have a situation here. [Prince of Petworth] & [WaPo]
Downtown – Lots of kurfuffle over the motivation behind Douglas Development’s raze permit request for the billboard…we mean historic building at 11th and K St NW. [The Location] & [Washington CityPaper]
Penn Quarter – Leica officially opens their Washington DC store and first stand alone retail store in the U.S. at 977 F St NW. First mentioned on Penn Quarter Living in September 2011, we dropped by to check it out and it is very cool. [WaPo] & [Washington Business Journals] & [Huffington Post] & [Urban Daddy]
City Hall – Gun registration in D.C. may get a little easier. [DCist]
Penn Quarter – Speculative (or hopeful) thoughts from Douglas Development about what may go into 915 F St NW. We think it would make for an interesting restaurant with grand effect, but that’s just us. [Greater Greater Washington]
