A look at what's going on in Trinidad, on H Street, and in the larger area north of Capitol Hill.
Apparently one is coming to 200 Florida Ave NE, which would place it right next to the NY Ave metro. Once they finish construction, the immediate area will also have a Marriot Courtyard, and the new ATF headquarters.

wow, how did you find out about this? tip from someone else, or do you scan every chain in the world for future locations? ;)
Jan 15, 2008, 12:26:00 PM
hehe.
it was on your favorite eckington blog, imgoph! you even left a comment there.
i hate the washington times, but it was also on the front page of their business section.
Jan 15, 2008, 12:42:00 PM

Jan 15, 2008, 12:46:00 PM
it was? oh crap, my mind is going. i knew this would happen, but i thought it would at least wait until i turned 30.
Jan 15, 2008, 12:48:00 PM
imgoph, maybe you should drink purified water! ;o)
at the end of the times piece, there's a mention of Fitness Together, the place opening up on H:
• Fitness Together, a personal training franchise, has signed a lease to open a facility in Vienna, Va. The company, which already has 10 locations in the Washington area, promises every customer one-on-one instruction with a personal trainer.
The new facility, at 2235 Cedar Lane, is scheduled to open next month.

last thing:
if you don't know Heidi's and want to see what they're all about, head out to the one on 1710 H St NW.
not too shabby..
Jan 15, 2008, 1:02:00 PM
didn't know you edited/censored your own posts, inked...
but hey, it's your blog.
and, wheatley gets a mention after giving you a tip, and i don't after mentioning pound coffee?
what's up with that?
very, very interesting.
gonna have to think about this...
Jan 15, 2008, 10:48:00 PM
goph, I posted this on the Litteri thread. I was trolling the DC Chowhound site, noticed posters talking good stuff about Heidi's, and checked their Coming Soon page.
I'm surprised Washington Business Journal hadn't covered it.

Poo Poo,
I get the comments emailed to me and sometimes I read them out of order. That's what happened here. I was responding to something where someone else had already responded.

A Brooklyn deli, from Denver. I love capitalism:)
In all seriousness, I love that there are stores opening up there. If we are lucky, they might even cater to the residents and not close at 3.
