North Face Construction Begins
GM stopped by the future North Face location (3333 M St.) on Sunday to see if construction has begun yet. As it happens, the general contractor was there too. GM spoke with him and learned that construction is actually starting today. The whole building will be gutted and despite this ambitious plan, the store is scheduled to open in August.

The North Face to Open in Georgetown
According to the just announced agenda for next week’s ANC meeting, The North Face is presenting a design concept for a store at 3333 M St. This is the first GM’s ever heard about The North Face opening up in Georgetown, and the Google hasn’t heard about it either.
That space was most recently used for Foto Week DC, and before that it was the doomed-from-the-start Artefacto furniture (when the construction of your building is held up because of a massive sinkhole, that’s not a good omen). It’s a huge space and only so many tenants could carry it, but perhaps the name brand of North Face and it’s proximity to a prime market at Georgetown University will mean success.
