New Liquor Store?
Bloomingdale says we're getting a brand spanking new liquor store at 6th and Rhode Island. Hey, isn't there a small park across the way? Park + Liquor Store= Headache.Labels: business

History, me complaining, history, stuff about the immediate hood (Truxton Circle) and the surrounding neighborhood (Shaw), gentrification, demographics, and some more history.

Check out the bloomblog. It's a restaurant.
Just what we need, another liquor store with lexan windows...
you guys, it's a restaurant.
read the linked blog again.
it's not a liquor store.
Hey p.p. - any other sources on that being a restaurant other than the liquor license itself?
There will be a lot of interest in the surrounding blocks either way, so any info you have would be great.
The source on the other blog says the request is for a class B license.
Retailer's License Class A:
(Liquor store) Retail sale of beer, wine, and spirits for off premises consumption.
ABC License Retailer's License Class B (Grocery/convenience store): Retail sale of beer and wine for off premises consumption.
ABC License Retailer's License Class C: Retail sale of beer, wine, and spirits for on premises consumption.

it may be a convience store that sells wine.
it may be a restaurant.
owners are debating.
either way, it's better than what there is there now.
trust me, it'll be clean, and help develop the 'hood'. the owners have been in 'upper georgetown' for years, and aren't about to slum the area.
methinks you'll be surprised...
by the way, if they do go through with the convience store that sells wine, they'll also sell foods from around the world.
if they go that way, instead of a restaurant (which they are thinking about), it'll be a great addition to the hood.
pp, by "convenience store" do you mean something like a 7-11 or something closer to an upscale/gourmet market?
thanks,
jennifer
