“Dear PoPville,
DCA terminal D has lost its essence!! They removed the Dunkin, Washington Pour Bar, etc. While yes, the grab and go market and Wow Bo are probably good to go to allow for more seating- will totally miss the chaos of the terminal and having a drink with the best views at DCA. The other Dunkin in the terminal has such a long line too- so no final option to grab coffee before departure. New seating looks super off…
Sad!!”

From Loyalty Books:
“Friends! Our time in the wonderful space at 843 Upshur St NW is coming to an end and it is time for the next chapter. Our lease is up this February and after talking through options with our landlord and partners, we came to the conclusion that we would need to make a change. Our move is motivated both due to operating costs in the current location and what kind of work we want and need to do in order to get to our next milestone anniversary with our community. So! Our last full day of operations at 843 Upshur St NW will be Sunday, February 2nd! We’ll be posting updates here as we release the new location. Rest assured we are not only staying in Petworth, we’re staying *quite* close by. (more…)
From an email:
