“Dear PoPville,

Thanks to Mike for sending some updated shots from inside the Glover Park Whole Foods renovations, and even some scuttlebutt on an opening date:
“Great progress at Glover Park WF… rumors of a May opening!” (more…)
That’s what I’m hearing. I’ll give this an 87% possibility. No confirmation yet so stay tuned for the when and where if it happens.

Last week we learned that “Half & N silver diner rumors appear to be true.” Let’s mark that 100% true. All the info from a press release:
“Silver Diner has just signed a lease for its first Silver Diner restaurant in Washington, D.C. While the company operates a restaurant in Northwest, Washington–Silver, American Brasserie, it has never had a Silver Diner in D.C. The 8,000 square foot, two-story space is located at Half and N streets, Southeast. It is located next to Nationals Park. (more…)
Thanks to Cameron for sharing: “Little Miner Taco cryptic posted on IG that they may be opening storefront in DC. You need to get the lowdown.” (more…)
Thanks to Jake for sending: “Half & N silver diner rumors appear to be true. Their reps were making the rounds to various residential buildings today. Told our GM first floor diner, second floor bar overlooking the ballpark entrance.”
Stay tuned!

Florida Ave at California Street, NW
“Dear PoPville,
I’m in Adam’s Morgan and my fiancé and I were crushed when Pleasant Pops closed its doors. But today we noticed some potential good news. Just across the street from the prior location, it appears a shop is being put together. The best part? We could see a Pleasant Pops sign inside when we briefly peaked in the window!”
