Thanks to the Adams Morgan BID for sending an update on that fast casual burger joint at the corner of 18th and Columbia Road, NW. The fears were unwarranted?

Park Place apartments at New Hampshire and Georgia Ave, NW technically 850 Quincy St, NW
No, I’ve never actually heard of Burgerim but this damn retail space has been vacant for so long – I’m marking this as a win!! Also, burgers!!
Michael Neibauer reported on twitter:
“Pending BZA special exception approval, D.C.’s first Burgerim franchise is planned for 850 Quincy St. NW, at the corner of Rock Creek Church Road and Georgia Ave.”
So I think this is the big space with the curve at New Hampshire and Georgia pictured above. Anyway Burgerim’s website says:
“Burgerim is an international fast casual franchise with a shiny new concept. (more…)

From a press release:
“The Capital Burger (1005 7th Street NW; 202-638-0414) joins Washington’s exciting restaurant scene this March, opening in Mount Vernon Square, convenient to the buzzy Shaw neighborhood, the Walter E. Washington Convention Center, and downtown’s bustling central business district. The 150-seat restaurant will offer a menu of specialty and classic burgers paired with a world-class wine program in a modern, comfortable dining room and vibrant lounge perfect for gatherings large and small. The Capital Burger will provide Washington diners a familiar, elevated service and a keen sense of hospitality – an extension of its legendary sister restaurant, The Capital Grille on Pennsylvania Avenue.
The result is a classic meal fit for an epicure; a luxury burger experience.

“Dear PoPville,
Just a heads up that Five Guys Navy Yard is closed again for “renovations”. We stopped in yesterday and they told us that they would be closed for renovations until baseball season and that they would have milkshakes available for purchase when they reopened.
This same thing happened a couple years back, and the restaurant looked the same when they reopened so I figured it was equipment or something. Stinks for the staff.”
“Dear PoPville,
Have you heard anything about the closure of Five Guys in Terminal C (adjacent to gate 37) at DCA? I travel frequently for work, but haven’t flown from DCA in about a month; when I was last here in mid-December it was still open. The Five Guys sign is still up in the terminal, and both Five Guys and DCA’s websites still list this location as being active, but as you can see from the photos it’s been enclosed by a construction barrier.”
