I’ve been getting lots of emails from folks asking for updates on the Streets Market coming to the old Metro K space. I’m told they are just waiting on a construction permit but they are definitely still coming. If all goes well they should open in the fourth quarter of 2019.
22nd and N Street, NW
Also the Streets coming to the West End is on track to open in the third quarter of this year.
Updates as we get exact opening dates at both locations.

Ed. Note: Wait, are those palm trees? What are those?
Thanks to John for sending:
“I’ve always told myself I should live where palm trees grow. West End is getting tropical and it’s not just the humidity. Also that Streets Market in the background is supposed to be opening soon.”
Ed. Note: Wait, I didn’t even know a Street Market was coming here?!? Stay tuned for another one coming to Adams Morgan too.

“Dear PoPville,
Helluva way to wake up? Spotted at 22nd and N NW. Not sure the best way to get graffiti off shingles, but I’m guessing it won’t be cheap.”

Thanks to Lindsey for sending:
“I stopped by the new Heller & Wilde on Friday night, formerly Bayou then briefly Alfred House?? It was awesome! It is a prohibition inspired bar with modern twists on the classics. Great 20’s inspired cocktail list and thoughtfully delicious food. I think it was a soft opening this past weekend, but thinking it should be fully open this week? I also really liked their communal tables outside on the front patio!”
