Noodles and Company Hoping to Open Another Location at 1815 Wisconsin Ave, NW

By Prince Of Petworth


1815 Wisconsin Ave, NW

Looks like another Noodles and Company is planning on opening at 1815 Wisconsin Ave, NW where the former Einstein Bagels was located before the massive renovation/new construction started. In Dec. 2011 Noodles and Company opened their first DC location in Woodley Park in the old Sake Club space at 2635 Connecticut Ave, NW. The Woodley Park location took 8 months to open from when the zoning process first started there. So, at the earliest, we’re probably looking at a winter opening for the Wisconsin Ave location.

District Noodles Coming to Glover Park

By Prince Of Petworth

The retail space at 2317 Wisconsin Ave, NW has been vacant for years. It’s great to see someone, District Noodles, finally moving into the space near the Whole Foods in Glover Park. According to a liquor license application, it will be a:

“Fast casual Vietnamese restaurant with a seating capacity of 50 and total load of 99.”

There was a significant renovation going on when I walked by but when they open we’ll be back to check out their Pho.

Ligne Roset Furniture Store Coming to Glover Park

By Prince Of Petworth

Ligne Roset is coming to the 2100 block of Wisconsin Ave, NW in Glover Park. Apparently they previously had a store in Georgetown which closed at 3306 M St, NW. Their Website says:

Known for its artful collaborations with both established and up-and-coming talents in contemporary design, Ligne Roset offers consumers an entire lifestyle in which to live both boldly and beautifully via its furniture collections and complimentary decorative accessories, lighting, rugs, textiles and occasional items.

An additional distinguishing point of difference that sets Ligne Roset apart from other manufacturers is its tradition of investing in dynamic designer collaborations. Matching its deeply-held belief in design with investment and technical innovation, Ligne Roset has grown from a small business to a multinational company with factories in France, headquarters in Briord, France and more than 200 exclusive Ligne Roset stores and 1,000 retail distributors worldwide. All the while, the company has been family-run since its inception in 1860.

Creativity is a key value of the Ligne Roset brand: if a new product demands new materials or productions methods, the company will simply acquire them. Seats, pieces of furniture, lighting, textiles, rugs or bed linens: the idea precedes and the technique follows.

Had anyone visited the Georgetown spot before it closed?

Anti Putin Protests Outside the Russian Embassy Saturday

By Prince Of Petworth

Anti-Putin protests hit Glover Park this weekend. I saw this scene outside the Russian embassy on Wisconsin Avenue.

The funny thing was from a distance, it looked like they were protesting the Christmas tree lot. I’m very glad I was wrong about that one.

Though, I’m pretty sure this guy was just waiting for the bus:
