Play-By-Play: Grocery Store Development
It’s that time in Penn Quarter when everyone has grocery store fever! So, here is some info to temporarily relieve your symptoms:
A reader informs us: I wanted to give this heads-up and see if you guys could possibly dig into this. I just walked by the “grocery store space” about 3 minutes ago and saw that there are currently several workers inside the building cleaning, and also removing the “For Lease” lettering from all of the windows. I can only assume that the building has now been leased because all of the lettering is gone, the doors are open, and there is minor cleaning work taking place inside (at 9pm mind you).
Could workers just be getting ready for the big meeting tomorrow between Whole Foods and Douglas Development? Also, PQ residents should not be shy to talk to contractors – they provide the best information!

I am so keeping my fingers crossed, though I must admit I’ll believe it when I’m being rung up at the WF checkout and swiping my credit card. Not a minute before. But I am so hoping this happens! Please sign the petition, everyone.
I heard that the “For Lease” sign is back on the window again. Does anyone know the details of the meeting scheduled for today?
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
I decided to go downstairs and see if there were contractors at the building. There were about five people inside, so I popped in to inquire.
They said the building is still up for lease, but they are replacing the signs on the windows because they were “messed up.”
They are cleaning some things up though, perhaps because of the meeting like you mentioned.
