Mothership will be moving into the former Brown’s Caribbean Bakery at 3301 Georgia Ave, NW.
From kickstarter:
Mothership will be a restaurant and bakery in what was formerly a carry-out space on Georgia Avenue. With community tables, weekend brunch and family-friendly BBQs, we hope Mothership will be a community cornerstone and meeting place. Chef/Owner Stephan Boillon will offer delicious baked goods & pastries, gourmet pizzas, small plates and seasonal tasting menus, designed to showcase great ingredients.
By preparing farm-to-table, seasonal ingredients, sustainable seafood, and pastured meats, we will provide good wholesome food to upper Georgia Avenue in an inviting neighborhood space. Our goal is to give our patrons tasty and unique food options, whether they are eating a vegan, vegetarian, pescaterian or omnivorous diet.
With funds raised on Kickstarter, Mothership will
Create handcrafted, custom bar & dining tables using reclaimed materials
Design and build ADA accessible bathrooms using reclaimed fixtures
Install a 10 ton Energy Efficient HVAC system

It’s been a long time coming but it looks like the huge renovation coming to Petworth’s Safeway is about to kick off. I hear that the Safeway will close in September for demolition and a temporary pharmacy will open up at 4034 Georgia Ave, NW:
You can see a look at the rendering and the plans for the project, here.
Hallelujah!!!

Passing along a bit of scuttlebutt I heard about the long vacant lot on the corner of Otis and Georgia Ave, NW (across from Fish in the Hood and Lion’s Liquors.) Word on the street is that drawings are in the works for condos with some ground retail – possibly an organic bodega. Stay tuned.

Looks like the retail space next to the Pink Snapper at 832 Shepherd St, NW has changed into a clothing boutique. This one joins Cookie Wear, Fia’s Fabulous Finds, Willow and Starr’s 2nd Story Boutique in Petworth.
Cookie Wear couture is located at 3717 Georgia Ave. NW just north of the Petworth metro in the old Sisterspace books space. Their hours are 1230 Noon to 8pm.
“Cookie Wear is Fun Urban Tees that celebrate the 70’s 80’s and the 90’s with a twist of Hip Hop, Disco and POP”

Looking forward to seeing what happens at the Sweet Mango Cafe corner:

Dear PoPville,
My wife and I were walking back from lunch on Monday afternoon, on Allison between 13th and Georgia, when we noticed that there were fliers on every step. Out of curiosity, I picked one up, only to find that it was essentially hate-speech claiming that Jewish people were planing genocide against Americans. The pamphlets were written by Peter J. Cojanis. I looked him up on Google and found that he has done this before in the Metro area. I was wondering what residents can do?
Do the police have any say over the matter, or are unsolicited pamphlets protected by the 1st Amendment? Is there anyone else we should contact? Usually, I wouldn’t make such a big deal about this, but the pamphlets seemed very menacing and ugly. Personally, I would like to try to keep it out of our neighborhood. Any advice is appreciated.
Ed. Note: In Dec. 2011 anti-semitic fliers hit Cleveland Park.
