Little Red Fox shares in their IG this morning:
“Dearest Friends & Neighbors,
After more than 9 wonderful years, we will be closing our doors at the end of this month. December 23rd will be the last day of service at Little Red Fox and Sugar Fox.
This is not a business decision. Our little neighborhood operation has maneuvered around every bump and turn and continues to thrive thanks to our incredibly hard working staff, our incredibly supportive community, and countless regulars who visit us almost every single day. This is a personal decision by us, store owners Matt and Jena. In order to address complicated health issues and prioritize the well being of our family, we’ve had to make the very difficult decision to close. (more…)

From the Mayor’s Office Friday:
“Mayor Muriel Bowser announced the re-issuance of the Frank D. Reeves EquityRFP. It was revised and updated to eliminate complexities that created potential barriers to entry that might hinder the EquityRFP initiative’s goals to increase access to development opportunities for entities or organizations owned or majority controlled by individuals determined to be part of a socially disadvantaged population, particularly for Black, Brown, and people of color. The new Reeves EquityRFP process is structured to create these opportunities for equitable development while ensuring the project stays on track with the initial timeline.
“Together with our partners on the Council, we have invested in the future of the Reeves Center site and removed some of the complexities that created a high barrier to entry and deterred potential respondents,” said Mayor Bowser. “The new Reeves EquityRFP makes space for more partners to compete for this historic project while staying on track with the initial schedule.”
DMPED acknowledged that this process has taken more time than initially expected and expressed appreciation for the community’s patience as multiple agencies coordinated the relocation of complex mission-critical IT and data center infrastructure. (more…)
