For those who like lists, this is my NUMBER ONE most anticipated opening for 2017. Thanks to an eagle eyed reader for spotting this photo from *Wallpaper magazine of one of the bars coming inside the Line Hotel. It looks great.

Check out more interior photos here.

The Line’s website says opening this Fall:

“In Adams Morgan cultures intersect to create one of Washington, DC’s most diverse non-stop neighborhoods. With live music seven nights a week, ethnic cuisine from five continents and local shopping boutiques, Adams Morgan has something for everyone and delivers a uniquely rich way to experience the nation’s capital.”

STAY TUNED.

“A man was robbed and beaten very badly Tuesday night around 11:00pm”

A reader reports:

“A man was robbed and beaten very badly last night around 11:00pm on Summit place and 18th St. Please pass this along, hope the man is ok, thank you. The Ontario apartments got an email, the neighbors heard the ambulance at 12am and was a big police presence. I live in the 1800 block of Summit and the crime was a block away. We have had few muggings around here but nothing like this.”
