Good morning Georgetown, here’s the latest:

• Over 20 GU students still testing positive for Covid each day. That represents over 7% of all cases in the District.
• A bit more on the M St. shooting last week.

GM’s trying something new. He’s started a TikTok account. He’ll try to fill it with little virtual Georgetown walking tours like this. Follow along if you like the first one.

Good morning Georgetown, here’s the latest:

• Takeout Tuesday this week is Brasserie Liberte and Reren Lamen.
• The Asian skewer restaurant, Sticx, has (or will have) a wine bar upstairs called Stonz.

Back in October, GM noted that the 7-Eleven at Wisconsin and O had been closed for months under a nebulous Health Department order. If there were any chance that the store would open at that point, it appears nil now. The signage was completely removed recently.

Moreover the location is no longer listed on the company’s website. (GM’s not sure when it was removed, but it’s definitely gone now).

Good morning Georgetown, here’s the latest:

• A new design for the hotel planned to replaced the old Latham Hotel at 30th and M.
• Go Fund Me set up for the aspiring chef who was shot and killed this week.

Last March, GM had the pleasure to announce that the fantastic Georgetown Butcher was planning on opening a new location at Wisconsin and Volta. GM understood that the move would enable a wider offering to go along with the larger space (they would take over the former Little Birdies and Georgetown Olive Oil spaces). A great deal of GM’s excitement stemmed from the fact he lives a block away. He was already counting down the days.

The opening date was originally targeted for last summer. But that got pushed back till this spring. However now the move is off entirely. The shop will remain in its Grace Street location.

Good morning Georgetown, here’s the latest:

• Condo listed for $14 million went under contract.
• The victim of the shooting Monday night was Tarek Boothe, 27 years old from Alexandria.
