Thanks to Dan Enterline for sending:

“The plaza at CityCenter is now open, and all decked out for the Cherry Blossom Festival. (Pic taken Wednesday evening, March 20, 2014) The photo was taken from the SE corner of the plaza facing NW.”

A permit has been issued for Del Frisco Steakhouse which we first heard about back in Nov. 2012:

“PERMIT ISSUED,950 I ST NW UNIT 501,”CONSTRUCTION OF FIRST TIME TENANT IN NEW BLDG. AT CITY CENTER DC, PARCEL 5, DEL FRISCOS DOUBLE EAGLE STEAK HOUSE RESTAURANT SEATING 80 ON THE LOWER LEVEL, 89 ON 1ST FLOOR, 199 ON THE 2ND FLOOR, TOTAL SEATING 368, MAX CAPACITY 420.”

In June of 2012 Del Frisco’s Grille opened in the long vacant former Les Halles space at 1201 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW.  You can see the Steakhouse menus here.

A couple of weeks ago I also posted some retail scuttlebutt about a Hermes, Gucci, D&G, Tiffany&Co as possible tenants. Here’s an update from a good source – No D&G, No Gucci but yes to a Louis Vuitton and a Paul Stuart and a Tiffany & co is still possible.

Sweet City Rides

Thanks to EH for sending this great two-fer “A VW bug parked about 20 feet in front of a VW van.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
