Hey all, As discussed at Monday’s BACA meeting there’s in the works a Wine Bar to be called Snitch Eye proposed at 3rd and Florida Ave NW. I’m reading about it everywhere: at Mari’s In Shaw blog, Prince of Petworth, on Snitch Eye’s Facebook Page and on the BACA Facebook Group page (Note: you can see the Snitch Eye page without a facebook account, but not the BACA group page.) Looks like they don’t have DCGOV permitting done yet, so that is always the sticking point for new establishments. But I like that they’re reaching out to the community, fast and early. I’m fairly sure that just like the Bloomingdale establishments that have opened of late, there’s pent-up demand that will pack the house once this place opens its doors.
I’ve heard that Myla Moss is against this – is that the case?
Greetings,
Until this notice I was not aware of a new establishment at 3rd and Florida. The owners of this entitiy have not communicated in any way with me. Further, I have not recieved any official notification about this establishment from ABBRA, HPRB, BZA or DCRA. Therefore, at this time I have no position on this establishment. Additionally, 3rd and Florida Ave. is not a part of ANC1B01 my SMD stops at 3rd and Rhode Island Ave.
Regards,
Myla Moss
Thanks for commenting Myla!
Eric, I don’t know the answer to that, but I just emailed Myla Moss at this email, mjmenjoy@yahoo.com, which is listed as her official ANC1b email when I googled her. I asked her for a response here. Let’s see if she answers!
All – the BACA Agenda was published on this site and on Facebook. I will be posting the meeting minutes when finalized. The investors at looking at a property on Florida Ave NW that is in ANC 5C01 and in BACA’s boundaries. The lease is not yet signed and the investors are in the negotiation phases. I will post more details this weekend. The process is just begining. Once it is appropriate, our Civic Association will vote on a resultion to support or oppose the project, so far, the support seems to be for it. Thank you. Geovani Bonilla.
Thanks Geo. Look forward to hearing more!
It is great to coordinate with a potential business so early in the process. I look forward to additional services and jobs in ANC 5c01 and the Bates Area.
