From a press release:
“Continuing its vision of creating places in Union Market District where community, design and culture come together in unexpected settings, today EDENS unveiled plans for Late Checkout and Nº 31. By next year, the corner of 4th and Penn streets NE will be transformed into a welcoming oasis in the heart of the city, where elevated hospitality offers many reasons to stay.
“Late Checkout is the kind of place everyone will want to be—whether you disappear into the garden for an afternoon, let a drink turn into dinner or bring an out-of-town guest to an experience that could only exist in Union Market District,” said Jodie W. McLean, CEO of EDENS. “And if you’re still not ready to leave, you can settle into one of our guest rooms. This is not simply a new place to stay; it’s an entirely new way to experience hospitality.”
The site’s potential first came into focus last year when EDENS debuted Union Market by Design: Room Service, inviting Washington to wander through motel rooms transformed by interior designers, artisans, fine artists and home and lifestyle brands. The two-week event revealed what 7,000 visitors saw firsthand: there is an appetite in DC for unexpected places to gather; an obsolete motel wanted a new life, and EDENS is now delivering it.
