Following is the full press release:
“Landmark Theatres will open a six-screen cinema at Atlantic Plumbing, a new mixed-use community at 8th and V Streets NW being developed by The JBG Companies and Walton Street Capital. This is the second new theatre Landmark is building in the Washington Metropolitan area. In November it was announced they were also opening at Capitol Point on New York Avenue, another JBG development.
“We are eager to be a part of the Atlantic Plumbing development in the U Street corridor near D.C.’s popular 9:30 Club” said Landmark Theatres’ CEO and President Ted Mundorff. “Our customers are going to love what we are planning. From the indoor-outdoor café to our very high end seating, this is the perfect location for our new theatre.”
Atlantic Plumbing, expected to open late 2015, will be Landmark Theatres’ fourth location in the Washington market. The E Street Cinema in Penn Quarter will celebrate its 10th Anniversary this month and the popular Bethesda Row Cinema in Maryland underwent a complete renovation last spring. The Capitol Point location is expected to open Fall 2016.
“We broke ground on Atlantic Plumbing this fall, and we’re very pleased to have Landmark Theatres join us,” said Robin Mosle, a JBG executive vice president. “With Atlantic Plumbing’s grit-meets-glam vibe and focus on independent artists, it really is a natural fit and a terrific addition to the area. Landmark’s audience will appreciate the atmosphere at Atlantic Plumbing with its unique design and authentic feel, as much as they will its eclectic neighborhood.”
The mixed-use development designed by New York architect Morris Adjmi and Washington, DC-based Eric Colbert & Associates and featuring a steel exo-skeleton, encompasses two buildings and more than 350,000 square feet. The 10-story main building, with 310 residential units, is currently under construction. It will feature the Landmark Theatres and an additional 11,500 square feet for restaurants, retail and artist studios.”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
