“Dear PoPville,
Columbia Heights penis window.
Just wanted to report that I was walking down 13th and noticed in the 2100 block 13th Street, NW that someone had taken the glass and screen out of the front window of a row home, hung up what looked like a sheet or a blanket, cut a small hole and presented their erect penis through the hole.

From a press release:
“District Distilling, located at 1414-1418 U Street, NW, 20009, will temporarily suspend restaurant operations on July 4 so management can shift their focus to the production and distribution of its award-winning line of spirits. The restaurant will resume operations in September 2018 under new management and with a new concept. (more…)

A liquor license placard at the Dirty Goose on U Street says:
“Licensee requests to expand rooftop Summer Garden into space over adjacent property at 911 U Street NW, increasing seating from 28 to 43, and increasing Total Occupancy Load from 48 to 99.“
Looks like it’ll be turning at 11th and S Street, NW to Vermont to Florida back up to 11th. So for those who ride the 64 – good, bad, or meh?
Awesome thanks to Grant for sending from JP. I think we know who’s gonna be included on the next mural…
Thanks to Hannah (and Adam) for sending: “Just saw this sign up at Creme, such a shame!”
Back in 2014 Creme moved from U Street to 14th Street. Back in the day, Creme had one of the most legendary brunches in town. End of an era for many, for sure. Updates when we learn what becomes of the space.
