Perennial “hidden” gem favorite Bardia’s New Orleans Cafe has closed in Adams Morgan. This would be a terrible dagger if the closure is anything less than temporary. Last month we learned that next door neighbor Beauty Tu You had closed.
A reader sends in this despicable sight:
“A car was spray painted “I luv N****s” btwn 18th and California st NW in Adams Morgan area.”
Last week we heard about cars getting tagged in Columbia Heights but this is a whole other level. I hope MPD resources are assigned to catch this criminal especially if it’s the same serial offender.
No comment on vaping but I always like to give props to those who invest in real signs. And I kinda dig this one too. DC Vape Joint is below the former Pharmacy Bar and future The High Dive on 18th Street.

Thanks to a reader for sending:
“Update on The Line hotel in Adams Morgan some may be interested in. Seems the lack of progress is due to a lack of permits. Washington Business Journal reports:
“770 Euclid St. NW: This permit calls for the installation of eight temporary dewatering wells by advancing a 12-inch soil boring to a depth of 60 feet on the site of the future Line DC hotel in Adams Morgan. The sheeting and shoring and building permits for the hotel itself are the subject of not-yet-approved applications.”

Bicycle Space in on a tear! Now they’re taking over the sweet newly renovated former Slaviya/Cities spot on 18th Street.
From Bicycle Space:
“BicycleSPACE announces the spring opening of an unimaginably large shop in Adams Morgan, an expansion progressing in tandem with the company’s upcoming shops in Mt. Vernon Triangle and Ivy City.
The Adams Morgan shop is located at 2424 18th St NW in a 6,400-square-foot storefront. At this size, the shop is the literal definition of BicycleSPACE, now enlarged to create a more opportune environment for bicyclists.
With this much physical space, BicycleSPACE will exponentially increase its ability to serve the greater Washington, D.C. market. It will also strengthen the D.C. economy by creating 40 new jobs, bringing its total workforce to 70+ employees.
BicycleSPACE anticipates an April move into the Adams Morgan property. In May, the company expects to open its 4,100-square-foot shop at 440 K St NW. BicycleSPACE anticipates a June opening at 1512 Okie St NE in the Hecht Warehouse District of Ivy City
BicycleSPACE is poised to become the largest bicycle retailer in D.C.
Adams Morgan, 2424 18th St NW
Projected Opening: April 2015

Last week we learned that De Vinos was closing after 9 years in Adams Morgan (hopefully securing a new space nearby soon.) At that time I had also heard some scuttlebutt that the folks from Jack Rose had purchased the space. In the comments a reader mentioned that next door neighbor Dahlak was closing too. This morning the Washington Post confirms the deal:
“In a move that’s likely to spur a few glass clinks, Bill Thomas, owner of Jack Rose Dining Saloon, has purchased the properties occupied by De Vinos and Dahlak Restaurant.”
Looking forward to learning more of his plans. Stay tuned.
