  • Government of the District of Columbia Advisory Neighborhood Commission 3B Glover Park and Cathedral Heights
    GOVERNMENT OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA ADVISORY NEIGHBORHOOD COMMISSION 3B GLOVER PARK AND CATHEDRAL HEIGHTS ANC – 3B Minutes November 13, 2008 A quorum was established and the meeting was called to order at 7:05 p.m. The Chair asked if there were any changes to the agenda. Under New Business, liquor license renewal requests for Whole Foods and Glover Park Market were tabled as well as the administrative item on “Consideration of Proposed Changes to the ANC Grant Guidelines.” The agenda was modified, moved, properly seconded, and passed by unanimous consent. All Commissioners were present: 3B01 – Cathy Fiorillo 3B02 – Alan Blevins 3B01 – Melissa Lane 3B04 – Howie Kreitzman, absent 3B05 – Brian Cohen 2nd District Police Report Crime and Traffic Reports. Crime is slightly up over last year with the police blaming the economy. During October there were 42 thefts from autos, half of them were GPS’s. As always, police recommended that citizens lock their cars and do not leave anything out in plain view. Citizens should do the same with their homes and garages. There have been a number of thefts from garages when the home owner left their garage door open. Officer Bobby Finnel is being transferred into PSA 204 from the PSA that encompasses Friendship Heights. Officer Dave Baker gave the traffic report. Every month, Officer Baker plans to give a tip for citizens. This month he talked about license tags for non-traditional motor vehicles. Officer Baker distributed a tip sheet on this subject. Any motorcycle that has wheels less than 16” in diameter and a motorized bicycle that has wheels greater than 16” are required to register.

  • Retail Bankruptcies in 2020: How the Fallout Will Play Out
    Retail Bankruptcies in 2020: How the Fallout Will Play Out BY LARRY GETLEN DECEMBER 15, 2020 7:55 AM JOHN NACION/SOPA IMAGES/LIGHTROCKET VIA GETTY IMAGES Our series covering trends in tenant and workplace experience. Click to read more of our coverage and sign up for the weekly Tenant Talk newsletter. It’s the perfect summation of 2020 to say that, in the commercial real estate industry, it was a much better year to be a bankruptcy lawyer than a retailer. While a certain amount of retail bankruptcies is to be expected, especially over the past few years, as e-commerce has provided staunch competition for brick and mortar, the pace of this year’s retail bankruptcy news has been dizzying. Neiman Marcus, JCPenney, Brooks Brothers, Lord & Taylor, CEC Entertainment (parent company of Chuck E. Cheese), Pier 1 Imports, Modell’s Sporting Goods, J.Crew, Century 21 Department Stores, Aldo, and Guitar Center are just a few of the many companies that led for some form of bankruptcy in 2020. “The past 12 months have been a bloodbath,” said James Famularo, president of Meridian Retail Leasing. “[For brands like] Modell’s and True Religion, the writing was on the wall. But Neiman Marcus, J.Crew, Brooks Brothers — these companies are iconic. They’ve been around for generations. It’s mind-blowing.” Not all of the bankruptcies have been death knells. While some brands, like Lord & Taylor and Century 21, are gone for good, companies including Neiman Marcus, Brooks Brothers, and Ascena Retail (parent company of Ann Taylor and Lane Bryant), among others, will survive their lings, albeit with a smaller retail footprint.
