Now that Town 2.0 is is a go I was curious how the original location was looking in Shaw. It’s going to be the JLinea apartments:
“Coming Spring 2020, J Linea will enable you to live in the center of it all. Like the eclectic neighborhood surrounding it, this luxe apartment community is unlike any other destination in the city. (more…)

A reader reports that in Shaw he heard 5-6 shots fired.
From MPD:

Updates when/if more is known/released.

From the owners:
“Construction is well underway and we want to be open yesterday, but it’s looking like late March or early April. We are so honored and humbled that so many people are excited our arrival, but please don’t hold us to that date as there are many balls in the air that we don’t have control over. We can’t wait to start providing Shaw/Mount Vernon a steady supply of bagels! (more…)

Helluva run, helluva run indeed. Yesterday we broke the news that the famed Pop Up Bars of 7th Street were likely finished since all their equipment had gone up for auction. This morning Washingtonian confirms the news:
“The bar officially closed on Dec. 31 and will not be replaced by a permanent drinking destination.”

Well this is something. Thanks to a reader for passing on this listing from Rasmus Auctions:
“M30277 – Miracle on 7th Street Pop-up Bar – Washington, DC
