@BarracksRow shares the great news:
“ANOTHER new business on Barracks Row to announce! Look for Pho.licious in the space at 804 E Street SE in the coming months!”
Based on the name alone, I find this very very promising. They will be located just east of the Subway at 8th and E St, SE.
This home is located at 413 A St, NE:

Petite Gourmet was located at 224 7th Street, SE by Eastern Market. A recent liquor license application says the place, Boxcar, will be:
“Classic American Bistro with recorded music. No Live Entertainment. Sidewalk Cafe with 12 seats. Seating capacity is 75. Total occupancy load is 99.”
Were there any fans of Petite Gourmet?
Back in Jan. ’11 a reader asked about what new retail was coming into the first floor of Union Station. Thanks to a reader for sending the heads up about some coming soon signs:
“Dear PoP,
Blockbuster closed its doors this weekend on Barracks Row. They promptly dismantled their sign, but look what was underneath! I grew up picking out movies at Erol’s. Pretty awesome!”
Anyone else ever got to an Erol’s? I never heard of it. Pretty sweet. And word has hit the street about some scuttlebutt (I heard the rumor from 2 sources so it’s very likely negotiations are ongoing) that’s been swirling about a replacement tenant for 514 8th Street, SE.
Jos A Bank ‘The Expert in Men’s Apparel’. Good fit (no pun intended) for Barracks Row?
“Dear PoP,
I stopped by the Union Station location of the Capital City Brewing Company last night and there was a sign saying they are closing on Saturday (July 16). The waitress said the Smithsonian is going to expand the Postal Museum. She said they were trying to get into Union Station but that no new location had been finalized. Big loss for us meeting out of town tourist relatives for dinner.”
Another reader also told me that there is a strong possibility they will be reopening in Union Station. Capital City Brewing Company still has a location downtown at 1100 New York Avenue, NW and I’ll be sure to update when/if a new location in Union Station is found. Will others miss this location?
We spoke about the postal museum back in Sept. ’09.
This rental is located at East Capitol St SE & 13th St NE:

Nice skylights. 1/2 bath downstairs, full bath upstairs. Good closet space. Unit is located on the top floor of the building. Sorry, no pets.”
Sounds like this could be a good roommate option. $1900 sound right for this 2 bed/1.5 bath?

I love this row of houses. Didn’t realize that had carriage houses as well. Very cool. So glad to finally get a peek inside. This 4 bed/4.5 bath is going for $1,295,000.
