As I reported earlier this month, the city is moving forward with a new regulatory regime for the streateries. Rather than having the BID be the single permitee for the vast majority of the streateries around Georgetown, each restaurant will obtain its own permit and be responsible for maintaining their allotment.
The first batch of applicants is now working through the process. They are:
- il Canale- 1065 31st Street NW (#11161613)
- Clyde’s- 3236 M Street NW (#11162031)
- Say Cheese!- 1071 Thomas Jefferson Street NW (#11162092)
- Billy Hicks- 3277 M Street NW (#11161300)
- 7th Street Burger- 1424 Wisconsin Avenue NW (#11162011)
- Haagen-Dazs- 3120 M Street NW (#11162116)
- L’Annexe- 2917 M Street NW (#11162380)
- Lutece- 1522 Wisconsin Avenue NW (#11162605)
- Maman- 1353 Wisconsin Avenue NW( #11162457)
- Good Stuff Eatery- 3291 M Street NW (#11162445)
- Angolo Ristorante- 2934 M Street NW (#11162367)
- Thunder Burger & Bar- 3056 M Street NW (#11162371)
- Bodega Spanish Tapas & Lounge- 3116 M Street NW (#11162374)
- Martin’s Tavern- 1264 Wisconsin Avenue NW (#11162425)
- Pizzeria Paradiso- 3282 M Street NW (#11162435)
- Flavio- 1073 31st Street NW (#11162500)
The only applicant that I foresee having some issues might by Martin’s, as the regulations state a streatery can’t be located within 10 feet of a marked cross-walk. Their streatery along Wisconsin is within that 10 foot restriction. The Public Space Committee is empowered to make exceptions, and Martin’s is probably a strong candidate for receiving one. But we’ll have to see.
