Corner of 13th and H St, NE
The former location of Baitul Khair at 1255 H St, NE is getting completely gutted. Turns out it is going to be a new restaurant called The Spot On H. A liquor license application says:
“New Restaurant, offering American Cuisine, Entertainment Endorsement to include 2 to 3 piece Jazz Band, Summer Garden with 35 seats. Number of seats inside is 88, with total occupancy load of 126.”
It’s a pretty huge corner space:
Updates as construction progresses.
My friend, either you’re closing your eyes to a situation you do now wish to acknowledge, or you are not aware of the caliber of disaster indicated by the presence of a jazz club in your community. One fine night, they leave the pool hall, headin’ for the dance at the Arm’ry! Libertine men and scarlet women! And Rag-time, shameless music that’ll grab your son and your daughter With the arms of a jungle animal instink! Mass-staria! Friends, the idle brain is the devil’s playground! Ya got trouble!
I wonder if the owner is a George Pelecanos fan?
anyone remember the night club called “The Spot” from 12 years ago?
Sadly yes grr, spent too many freshman nights at “The Spot”…

Their bean sodas weren’t too shabby either.
