Street Talk Tomorrow & Monday Night

StreetTalk

Wednesdays from 11am to 1pm
SOVA Espresso and Wine
1359 H Street

What do YOU want to see on H Street? Do you dream of craft markets and artisan stalls? Really got a craving for a hot dog stand? Wish there was a place to buy a bike? What's YOUR vision? Each Wednesday, stop by SOVA anytime between 11am and 1pm for Street Talk - informal salon discussions of how we, as H Street business owners and stakeholders, envision the future of H Street, NE economic development. The possibilities are endless, but are more easily achieved when we come together as a business community to support a shared vision. Be a part of the discussion and have your voice heard. Street Talk is being initiated by H Street entrepreneur Joe Englert with support from CHAMPS – Capitol Hill’s Chamber of Commerce.

Special section Monday night at 6pm at the Argonaut (1433 H Street).

I don't get it. Is "a kite store" supposed to be a reference to gentrification?

Where the hell do you buy kites nowadays anyway? I saw a lady on the mall flying one with her kid.

I would like to see the development of Blair School (shelter). It is a wonderful structure thatr should be developed to increase residential density. How about the huge parking lot behind it? It is a massive waste of realestate. Maybe a project is already slated. I would like to know.

We definitely need a cupcake store. Aren't cupcakes slated to be the next big thing?

re gyms: there was a Results gym at NOMA and I'm not sure but I think it is no more?

I'd like a gym on the east end. West end has all those big fancy apartment buildings with gyms inside.

What kind of retail will the lower level of the Flats at Atlas have? How about a Mom's or a Yes market?

@Charles, that Results/Vida is a tad too west.

@vegan, Flats will have 5,000SF of retail. Expect a dry cleaner, Subway and a Pizza Hut.

Vegan,
They don't have a tenant/tenants yet. They will have two grocery stores under a block away.

Inked,

Is one of them Safeway at Hech Mall or were you talking about a new grocery store?

DC in general needs a decent clothing exchange store a la Buffalo Exchange or Plato's Closet. I realize that the Salvation Army on H Street sells clothes (scored a fly pair of Guess jeans there for $5 once), but places like Buffalo Exchange accept and resell only recent styles and 'in-fashion' stuff. Also, late night (until maybe 10pm or so on weekends) retail is something DC is SORELY missing. The Urban Outfitters in Georgetown and a few places in Chinatown are about all we've got, and certainly nothing that's upscale resale.

@roxan,

There is rumor of a buffalo exchange sizing up some space up on 14th.
