Spotted: An ABCA placard for Wild East Club at 1318 9th St NW in #Shaw. The proposed tavern seeks a live entertainment endorsement, while its online description touts a three-story nightlife destination inspired by contemporary Chinese aesthetics. Anyone remember Be Bar?

Anyone know what’s happening with Foster House at 9th & Rhode Island NW? The vacant building owes $2.1M+ in taxes and related charges. A 2024 settlement required its sale within two years, preserving 76 affordable apartments. Any updates?

ICYMI, this was proposed for Foster House in 2022: 198 apartments, including 76 deeply affordable units for returning residents and 122 market-rate units, plus shared amenities. The redevelopment stalled amid litigation over housing conditions and tenants’ rights.

Looks like Marks Electric sold for $700k on 10/16/26 (down from its asking of $1m). Wonder what’s next for this property (ideally it’s part of a broader redevelopment of this blighted row). 🍿🍿🍿#shaw

End of an era: Mark’s Electric sign taken down today. 1530 9th — damaged by a fire a few years ago that started at decades long blighted / vacant neighboring church properties— still shows up as for sale online. #shaw
