“Dear PoPville,
The stretch of Warder close to New Hampshire got a new look recently, including a better-placed bike lane. They also put up new signs,although one just says “At New Hampshire” even though it’s considerably before New Hampshire. I cannot possibly understand whom this is for, except for people with memory issues. I don’t have any questions or criticisms I just thought the community would like to see it.”

Ed. Note: From Reliable Tavern (3655 Georgia Ave, NW) also located on the block: “We have a lease through at least 2026 and at this point we are planning to continue operating for the foreseeable future. COVID was really challenging, but we’ve been fortunate to receive some additional funding from the city to help us with back rent, and really appreciate the continued support from the community…. business is picking up.”
Will update when/if I learn about any changes coming to the other businesses on the block.
“Dear PoPville,
iacovelli Cafe & Liquor [“Liquor store and cafe. Beer, wine, liquor. Regular breakfast, lunch, dinner + special additional Jamaican menu (curry chicken/shrimp, oxtail, brown stew)“], is closing at the end of May. Our old landlord ignored our request to renew our lease (we have been there 5.5 years), then sold the building! Very sad for us as we bought this store when our daughter was born and we survived through Covid. My husband Tambe runs the store and is the chef.” (more…)
