2001 S Street, NW, once home to the Secret Safeway (and Glen’s Garden Market)
Lots of missed our post last week about Dawson’s Market closing in Dupont at the end of the month. Thanks to all who’ve sent word that Thursday is the final day.
“To our valued customers,
We are saddening to announce the closing of our DC location on Thursday June 29th.
When we took over the Glen’s Garden in June of 2021, we knew we were taking on a store that was trying to come back out of COVID. We had hoped the return to work, increased product selections and reopening of the bar would help the store return to pre-covid sales. Unfortunately, even with our staff’s best efforts the sales are just not enough to cover operating expenses. We did our best over the past 2 years and we will miss all of you. Our Rockville location is still going strong and we would love to see you there. We are just 2 blocks from the Rockville Metro Station on the red line. We hope you will stop by and say hello, you will see some familiar faces there as some staff transfer to that location. We do intent to continue to service the community for any catering needs so please think of us for your next party or work event.
Thank you again for your support these past 2 years,
Bart Yablonsky and the Dawson’s Dupont Team”

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
