Park View, D.C.

As exciting as new businesses opening in the neighborhood can be, sometimes I sadly have to report business closings. Today, I have two to report.

After a little more than 7 months of operation, the Tibet Shop will close its Georgia Avenue location.

The first is the Tibet Shop which opened on November 20th of last year. In reaching out to the owner, I have confirmed that they will be closing their store at 3213 Georgia Avenue. Last week I reported that Petworth Liquors has applied to transfer their ABRA license to this location (I’ll be following up on where things stand with Petworth Liquors on Friday).

Another business that recently closed is the Georgia Avenue Market (3128 Georgia Ave — southwest corner with Kenyon). From what I understand the issue here was an increase in the rent that was unacceptable to the market operator. If you pass the property you’ll notice that the parking lot is chained off. Hopefully it won’t remain empty for long since its on such a prominent corner.
