The Roost will hopefully jump-start more retail in Barney Circle / Hill East all along PA Ave SE. The neighborhood really needs it.

I ran over the Cap South Bridge yesterday morning - the new bridge looks great.

SECNAV Braithwaite Pledges Support for Navy History Museum Nearing Deal to Move off Washington Navy Yard

By: John Grady
June 16, 2020

"The Navy is nearing an agreement with a developer to swap land parcels in the District of Columbia and make way for a new National Museum of the United States Navy outside the fences of the Washington Navy Yard, those involved with the relocation efforts said.

Speaking online at the 94th annual meeting of the Naval Historical Foundation, Navy Secretary Kenneth Braithwaite pledged to “re-invigorate the National Museum of the United States Navy,” which now attracts slightly more than 100,000 visitors annually.

Retired Rear Adm. Sam Cox, director of the Naval History and Heritage Command, estimated that a new museum outside the Navy Yard fences and within a six-minute walk of the region’s Metro rail system could draw up to 2 million visitors annually to tell the sea service’s story to the general public..."

^^ Finally! That lot has remained vacant for such a crazy amount of time given how popular Shaw has become over the years. So it looks like it will stretch the full block along P Street from 7th to Marion.
