Thanks to Colin (and others) for sending: “I was just at the Target on NY Ave, and I learned from one of the employees that the in-store CVS is closing soon. This CVS is, in my opinion, the best in the area – quick, efficient service, and knowledgeable/helpful staff. A real loss, imo.”
USA Today reported: “CVS is continuing to shutter storefronts in the new year and plans to close select pharmacies inside Target locations in the coming months. Read More

“Dear PoPville,
Wondering if you’ve heard anything about The Lane converting to an adults-only space. Got an email [see below] this morning inviting me to join a “one-of-a-kind grownup indoor playground club…” for $299/month plus a $250 initiation fee.
The website stripped most of its language about children and only features photos of adults. Read More

As a big gin drinker and a big fan – this is a huge bummer. District Made‘s Co-Founder and CEO, Alex Laufer, tells me that they are looking to sell the distillery and have closed their beautiful tasting room in Ivy City. They will continue to distribute and stay open for retail until the holidays and are hoping to open the tasting room for one last bash.
STAY TUNED.
