Good morning Georgetown, here’s the latest:
- Last Saturday, a mugger held up a pedestrian on the 3200 block of Reservoir. When he walked away with the victim’s wallet, the victim started to call the cops. The mugger saw this and ran back and stole the phone too and got away. Cheers to the victim for making an effort to call the cops as soon as possible. While it didn’t turn out as planned, GM thinks you’re awfully courageous.
- DCist stops by for some hearty snacks at the Tombs.
- Georgetown Voice digs into the Party Patrol.

Hopefully it means that the owners, the Heon family, are planning on restoring the iconic sign to its former glory. As reported here, the building was put up for sale this summer. GM wonders where this application fits into that plan. Continue reading
