Last night the ANC met for its December meeting and carried on one of the more momentous discussions it’s had in years: Should the liquor license moratorium continue or not?

GM previewed this discussion before Thanksgiving. In short, after substantive talks between representatives of the ANC, the Business Improvement District, and the Citizens Association, a draft agreement was crafted. It would call for the end of the moratorium and propose the creation of a new template for settlement agreements tailored to the particular concerns of the neighborhood.

You’d think of all places, Georgetown would have a Lilly Pulitzer store. That oversight appears to be coming to an end soon. The ANC agenda indicates that a new Lilly Pulitzer is moving in.

From the agenda the address is 1079 1/2 Wisconsin Ave. GM’s not exactly sure what address this is. The Jack Wills store is at 1079 Wisconsin. The next building up the street is the old Nathans building. Is 1079 1/2 the second floor of the Jack Wills address? Part of the old Nathans building? We’ll see.

Anyway, soon looking like a vision of acid dropped at an 80s cocktail party will be steps away.
