Georgia and Shepherd Street, NW
Back in Oct. 2012 I heard that the building formerly home to Goins restaurant had been purchased and they were looking for a tenant to fill a combined 4,000 Sq. Ft. restaurant on the ground floor. Still no word on the restaurant but a big banner has gone up announcing the new condos going into the top floors. It will be the Fahrenheit Condos. Stay tuned for more news on the retail/restaurant space when a tenant is found.
Ed. Note: There is already a Fahrenheit condo building located at 2650 15th St, NW next door to the Celsius building. It appears a Kelvin has still not opened anywhere…

I know cycling has problems, but the crackdown on juicing has gone too far.
All I know is I am tired of seeing every renovation is just a gut job, then a unoriginal...
I love Bacio pizza in Bloomingdale! They don't offer delivery but great neighborhood...
311? I think I found the flower thief. Suspect is helmeted male, hopped up on apple...
I tried their kabob last weekend, it was pretty good and a lot of food for the price....
I liked the editorial note!
We both just laughed out loud at that.
GEEK ALERT!
Me too, quite clever!
When is the Rankine building opening then?
Thanks for the update! Any word on the timeline?
I used to like the food at Goins years ago but that building has got to go. Too bad this city loves preserving ugly buildings. I’m sure the restaurant won’t be anything important, this is Georgia avenue after all.
Uhh, Chez Billy is on Georgia Ave and I wouldn’t call that unimportant, whatever you mean by that.
Wendy’s is just a couple blocks from here and the hamburger patties are fresh never frozen.
Not to mention a healthy variety of Chinese-Seafood-Subs-Chicken places sometimes all together in one fine establishment!
the building has to go because you think it’s ugly? i’m impressed by your ego!
Anon should stay in the suburbs then. I hear that Bethesda has lots of nice restaurants and there are hardly any non-white people to make you feel scared.
lame.
uncalled for comment that had no relation to the post
Hey, you take that back buddy! This site is close to a bunch of Georgia Avenue landmarks!! The world’s biggest new Safeway supermarket construction site, just 2 miles away from the forthcoming DC Wal-Mart, and right next door to the world’s most depressing 7-11/Gas Station ever!! >:[
I’ve heard some scuttlebutt that the 7-11/Shell has been bought by a developer.
If that is true that would be fantastic!
Don’t tease me like that…
Please elaborate!!
FAHRENHEIT IS FIRE!
+1. Thats all I can think of any time someone mentions residential development to me.
That realtor is now immortal.
Preserve the mural located on the left side of the building, please!
I really hope that a functioning diner is put in there, something open on Sundays when Lawrence’s carryout is closed.
Quit your whining and cook
The name-space collision makes you wonder what kind of due-dilligence are these builders doing.
Not sure which is worse: that they didn’t know about the existing Fahrenheit condo, or they didn’t care.
Terrific. It is always great to see progress on GA Ave. I too would love if a Diner came here. Would be happy to spend my money closer to home instead of taking the wife to American City Diner on Connecticut.
Super excited for this one.
Has the developer released any preliminary info on pricing for the Fahrenheit condos? Would love to get an idea of what they’ll be going for.
More than you think, probably. I’m guesssing at least 400K for a small 1 BR.
My guess is a lot, where 95% of people will say “wow I can’t believe how folks can afford these places”
That’s awesome! Looking forward to seing what comes into the retail space on the bottom.
Please put in a Bikram yoga studio!

+1000 for Bikram.
From my conversations last week (as the banner was being hung) I’m told they hope to have these units ready by years end. As to price point, yet to be determined. But, if they follow suit with their past projects we might expect them to be in the nicely done and yet affordable range. Finger crossed.
Cheers
Just to add my $0.02 for the retail – I’d give anything to have a gym in the neighborhood.
