Thanks to a reader for sending the plans from maedwell companies:

“The Denizen will be a luxury mixed-use development in the Bloomingdale neighborhood of Northwest Washington, D.C. The project will include 14 units in two connected buildings. The four-story buildings + Penthouse, located on the west side of North Capitol Street, will feature studios, one, two, three, and four bedroom luxury apartment units, approximately 10,000 square feet of retail space and a below-grade bike storage facility. The buildings will feature unique residences with 10′ foot ceilings, large walk-in showers, floor-to-ceiling windows, off-street parking, panoramic views of the city and a highly-appointed rooftop terrace.

Development Highlights

Targeted retail businesses: Bakery, Co Working Space, Coffee House, Teachers Kitchen, Italian Restaurant, Nail Salon and Gym/Yoga Studio.
Feature green roofs
Pedestrian walkway/central plaza through the whole development”

Yesterday Washingtonian reported (thanks also to those who sent links):

“The developer’s president, Syga Thomas, tells Washingtonian exclusively that he’s in talks with potential cooking school and grocery tenants for the ground floor of the building at 1634 North Capitol St., NW.”

Updates as construction progresses and the deal is sealed on retail.

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!
