Hawthorne’s Last Hurrah – Closing on U Street after this Weekend


1336 U Street, NW previously home to Newtown (and Tabaq before them)

“Welcome to Hawthorne, a four-story bar and DJ-focused venue at the intersection of 14th & U Streets with an incredible rooftop overlooking the city. With five bar areas, Hawthorne can host events of all sizes. We operate with DJ’s on the 3rd floor every Friday and Saturday.”

Thanks to all who messaged us the sad news from Hawthorne:

“It’s been a great 8 years and we’re thankful for all the memories. Join us on the rooftop this weekend for a final cocktail. We’ll be open at 8pm Friday and Saturday

Updates when we learn what becomes of the space.

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.
