Penn Quarter Living Turns Three
It’s hard to believe but last week Penn Quarter Living turned three years old. The first story was published on February 6, 2006 about the Chinese New Year celebration that year. Little did we know that that first posting would evolve into a daily update about urban living in the heart of the nation’s capital.
Our overriding goal is to provide the community with a useful, fun and interesting source of information about what is happening in the Penn Quarter and more broadly in downtown Washington DC. Whether you work here, live here, play here or plan to visit here, a huge thanks goes out to you, the readers, who provide us with great ideas, stories, announcements, tips and photos that allow us to be of service to the community.
Royal Thai Cusine & Bar Opening Imminent (507 H St NW)
Thanks to Sara for sending in a tip that Royal Thai at 507 H St NW looks to be opening soon! Last October, we spotted a building permit for the new restaurant. Check out the pics below. We were able to catch some workers carrying materials into the establishment.
