It’s Looking Official – Former Jamshid Rug Shop and Sherry’s Liquor Space to Become a CVS in Woodley Park

We heard two pieces of scuttlebutt about these properties located on the 2300 block of Calvert Street NW – a CVS and a Steak N’Egg. Looks like CVS is the winner.

I finally saw some plans in the front window of Jamshid’s:

Seriously? There’s one across the street. CVS is a plague that must be stopped. Seriously.

  I was about to post this exact response, but you beat me to it.

    I’m under the impression the one across the street is closing when this one opens. Honestly, if they put a pharmacy in the new one, it will be an improvement. Having a CVS without a pharmacy has never made a lot of sense to me.

The CVS across the street is easily the worst CVS I have ever been to. I cannot wait to have a real CVS that actually has a fully stocked inventory.

    All you have to do is get outside urban areas. CVS locations in lesser-populated environs are surprisingly nice, in comparison. In my hometown, population ~2,000, the CVS has always been immaculate, and well-stocked. Actually, it’s a lot nicer than the Walgreen’s across the street. Around here, though, Walgreen’s is a lot nicer in my experience.

The plans in the image say Project Type: Relo, so I’ll bet the store across CT is relocating to this property. If I were feeling less lazy I’d look up the store number on their site.

  There was also a post back back in April here on PoP that reported on CVS’ relocation from its current space to this new space.

Sherry’s has already relocated around the corner onto Connecticut.

For someone who lives a block away, this is great news. Maybe Steak & Egg will think about the current CVS spot. That CVS, sans pharmacy, sucks and is always swarmed with tourists. What I wouldn’t give for a self-checkout or two.
