Thanks to Bootsy for sending:

“Looks like Pasha on 17th Street finally closed. Note the realtor lock by the door. Always empty so it’s amazing it held out that long.”

Ed. Note: I called Pasha’s phone number and it’s been disconnected. Updates when we learn what becomes of the space. Word on the street is that neighbor Agora could be taking over the space.

2147 P Street, NW

Jeff Rueckgauer writes yesterday afternoon:

“Marrakech (2147 P NW) is no more. They are clearing out. Prelim work on the redev is expected to commence in the next week or so. No word yet when heavy work will begin.”

Marrakech has had a topsy turvy tenure to say the say least. Anyone familiar with the redevelopment plans here?

We’ll be giving away gift cards, Growler Club memberships, CSAs, shirts and other Glen’s goodies, and we’ll be offering $2 drafts to kill off our kegs. We want to take one last opportunity to thank the Shaw community for welcoming us, supporting us, and being our tireless champions. We also want to make sure everyone feels welcome at Glen’s Dupont (2001 S Street, NW), so much of our Dupont crew will be there to introduce themselves and start new friendships.”
