Thanks to Mitch, Sarah and Elizabeth for sending the news:

“Manhattan Market is closing at the end of the month.”

On a personal note as someone who moved to Woodley Park in 1997, I must say these were some of the nicest folks around. Always a kind word, always a kind greeting. They will be missed.

Ed. Note: When Capital Grocer opened near the metro some commenters expressed concern that it could impact Manhattan Market. Unclear how much of an impact the competition had on their decision.

Updates when we learn what becomes of the space.
