The countdown to the opening of The Swift at Petworth Metro is over. The new 218-unit, LEED Silver apartment community on Georgia Avenue NW in Petworth is now offering studios, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedrooms — all with Clean Steel appliances, full-size Energy Star washers and dryers, eco-friendly wood-style plank flooring, energy efficient windows, and sustainable quartz countertops. The smoke-free community is pet-friendly and bike-friendly, and features electric car charging stations in the secure garage as well as Zipcar parking. There’s a concierge team to help residents feel at home 24 hours a day.

The Swift held its grand opening, where guests took a tour of the building and enjoyed a Friday night happy hour, a BBQ on Saturday, and a champagne brunch on Sunday. Guests had a chance to check out The Swift’s many features — the apartments, clubroom, rooftop terrace, fitness center, Tech Bar with iMac computers, and courtyard. The rooftop terrace features five seating areas, 2 grilling stations with prep areas, a fire pit, and 270-degree views of DC. (more…)

This week, Chobani is surprising busy Metro commuters like you by offering you a better way to start your day. Their custom fleet of “Cho-ffeurs,” pedicabs designed to look like cups of new Chobani Greek Yogurt Oats on wheels, are offering free rides from train stations and designated hubs around the city to your workplaces. Along the way, you’ll get a free breakfast to fuel you all morning long — a cup of Chobani Oats, with its blend of Greek Yogurt, steel cut oats and real fruit. (more…)
