RSS FeedLinda Cropp Comes To Penn Quarter May 29 (Gallery Place on June 14)
Linda Cropp, mayoral hopeful, is the first mayoral candidate to hold a dedicated meeting with Penn Quarter & Gallery Place residents! This is a major development for our community because we have been largely ignored as a residential area by higher up political figures.
This first meeting is mainly for the residents of Market Square East and West, the Pennsylvania, Lansburgh, Clara Barton, Lafayette, Lexington, Terrell Place, Mather Studios, Historic Row, and Ventana and their guests.
There will be a second meeting on June 14th for residents of 400 and 555 Massachusetts Ave, N.W., Meridian at Gallery Place, Mass. Court, Gallery Place Residences, Avalon at Gallery Place, Cosmopolitan, Myrene, Judiciary House, 6th Street Flats, Wah Luck House, and their guests.
GPLiving will post a reminder for the 2nd meeting as the date draws closer.
Please try to RSVP to the appropriate individual listed on the flyer!
There will also be a voter registration table at the meetings!
Gallery Place Living Blog In The Express!
We completely missed it, but Andy clued us into a GPLiving blog mention in the WaPo’s Express paper this morning (page 40)! The article about GPLiving was out of the normal Blog Log and printed in the Look Out Online section. We’re truly humbled – thanks Express!
Also, we got a link in from the Express FreeRide site yesterday.

Indebleu Applies For Sidewalk Cafe In Gallery Place
Jeff passed Indebleu today and let us know that, in the window, there is an application for a sidewalk cafe! We can’t imagine how great the cafe would be when the Smithsonian opens up across the street on July 1. Plus, Indebleu has a large amount of sidewalk space in front of the building – it would make for a nice sized outdoor cafe. We need more sidewalk cafes in Gallery Place! Thanks Jeff!
