Movement at Penn Commons Coming to Chinatown

700 6th Street, NW

Back in early April we learned the once planned for Townhouse Kitchen and Bar by the Verizon Center would become Penn Commons instead:

“Opening is slated for late summer. The restaurant and bar will be similar to the group’s already successful District Commons restaurant at 2200 Pennsylvania Avenue NW.”

Now they’ve applied for a liquor license which says:

“New restaurant serving American food with sidewalk café seating 40 patrons. Total load is 400.”

Wow, didn’t realize it’d be that big inside – looking forward to seeing how it turns out.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!

Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.

Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
