Thanks to a reader for sending: “Was just at gaslight and Sunday is [was] the last day. They are closing for a renovation.”
I spoke with the owner to make sure it was indeed closing for a renovation and not a “renovation”. Fortunately it is indeed a proper renovation, they are “integrating one of the retail bays that’s under the rolldown door.” If all goes well they’ll reopen September 18th. Stay tuned.

Thanks to John for sending. This Sweetgreen opened in May 2013. Updates when we learn more about what they’re “cooking up.”

“I represent the family of a recent college grad who was critically injured in a bicycle crash on Sunday, June 23rd at about 11:30 am at the intersection of 11 and U Street, NW. As a result of the crash, he fractured his skull and sustained a traumatic brain injury – and he was just released from Howard Hospital days ago after undergoing a craniotomy and spending significant time in the ICU.
Now that he is finally out of the hospital, his family is trying to identify any witnesses who might have more information about the crash.”
