From a press release:
“September 27th marks the grand opening of the Marion Barry Avenue Market and cafe in Anacostia (1303 Marion Barry Ave, SE), bringing fresh produce, groceries and a fast casual cafe to the historic Ward 8. The new market is designed as a community hub to provide much needed, convenient access to healthy foods, a demo kitchen for nutrition education and cooking classes, with indoor and outdoor seating to celebrate the rich culture of the neighborhood.
Marion Barry Avenue Market and Cafe is an initiative of Dreaming Out Loud, the non-profit dedicated to rebuilding urban community-based food systems, and supported by investments from both public and private partners, including the Longer Tables Fund, founded by Chef José Andrés, and Mayor Muriel Bowser through the Office of the Deputy Mayor for Planning and Economic Development’s (DMPED) Food Access Fund. Together, these partners are working to address urgent issues in food systems, social justice, education, and economic inclusion.

closing notice up in Adams Morgan at 1801 Columbia Road, NW
Thanks to all who wrote in:
“Dear PoPville,
I wanted to pass on to you that the Starbucks in Adams Morgan is closing as of Sunday. It’s a giant loss for the neighborhood – while it’s true that there’s no shortage of coffee shops in Adams Morgan, the staff that works there is truly fantastic. And worst of all, the partners only learned the news yesterday (and from a customer no less) that the store would be shuttered and their jobs are gone by the end of the week. We asked if they’d be moved to a different location, and they said they weren’t sure – but as the stores at 16th & U and Howard (!) are also both closing, they’re not optimistic. (more…)
