Good morning Georgetown, here’s the latest:

• Adidas store to convert into a Reebok store, add a gym.
• GU students don’t like the idea of a satellite dorm, which is kinda tough because the school has already committed to acquiring one in the campus plan.

GM was down by the waterfront this weekend and noticed the unfortunate site you see above: bikes locked to trees. Seriously people: don’t do this. It’s really bad for the trees and cause damage which itself could invite disease and ultimately the demise of the tree.

Good morning Georgetown, here’s the latest:

• Both the TJ Maxx/Homegoods and El Centro opened last weekend. Anyone stop by? (GM walked by El Centro Saturday night. Nicely done, and not too crowded either.)
• S&R Foundation, which is so far known for its elegant Evermay concerts, is now turning to its other endeavors, including developing young students interested in international security.

• GM loves watching successive new Hoya journalists learn about the OGB. (Seriously he does. Some of the Georgetown Voice writers who were covering the beat when GM started this up years ago have moved on to stellar jobs at places like the New Republic and The Washington Post. GM thinks about that sometimes when he finds himself still covering that same old beat…)
• Jamie Stachowski is awesome and we’re lucky to have him.
