Christopher asked: “I heard a rumor that Town 2.0 is opening Memorial Day Weekend… Is this true? Does the DC LGBTQ+ community once again have an Ed Bailey super-club to go to?”
Ed replied: “Lol. No. That is not accurate.”
However, thanks to Derek for sharing a recent construction permit that seems promising: “I’d guess they’re aiming for a mid to late spring opening next year, maybe stretching all the way to pride week.” (more…)
Thanks to Steve for sending: “Sad to report that Ann Taylor on the second floor of the Union Station shops has been emptied over the last couple of days. The signs are down. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Have you heard anything about a whole bunch of restaurants closing in union station? I heard from a colleague this morning that Einstein brothers, Dunkin’ Donuts, and another restaurant were all shuttered when they went there today.”
I placed calls to the Dunkin and Einstein Bros. but the calls went unanswered…

From a press release:
“After seeking community input on what should be the permanent name for the new park coming to the northwest corner of 3rd & L Streets NE in NoMa and then putting the top three naming options to a public vote, the NoMa Parks Foundation (NPF) announced today that the winning name is “Swampoodle Terrace.”
Nearly 900 votes were cast online during the six-week community naming process which included the community suggestion round and the community voting round. “Swampoodle Terrace” received the most votes, surpassing the other two options by a more than 20% margin.
