Last week we learned Petworth’s new Safeway would be opening up June 27th. Yesterday afternoon a reader sent these photos:
“People are lining up from mid 1300 block Taylor to around the corner on Kansas for the safeway hiring office.”
Thanks to a reader for sending:
“We received this card (front and back) at Petworth Citizen last night about the new Asian French fusion restaurant and new bookstore coming to Petworth…”
Ed. Note: The campaign is working on me – I’m getting pretty psyched. Also, I’m told more new businesses are in the works too…
@YellowSimpson tweets us:
“Progress at Georgia Ave Petworth metro. But who knows when they’ll turn it on.”
If it works anywhere near as good as it looks – we’ll be set!
