Oasis Liquor store in Northeast, Washington DC (USA) near the New York Avenue and Florida Avenue Metro Station has been vacant for some time. The current owner Mr. Pak is looking to reopen the store. (The current owner claims the store has been operable for some time.) A group of neighbors, the ANC Commissioner and a neighborhood association would prefer that Mr. Pak consider another use for his store. Some suggestions are a coffee shop and a cleaners. The store is actually zoned residential. Mr. Pak was able to grandfather into remaining a commercial establishment. The DC Government ruled Mr. Pak can remain open as a commerical business. It will be interesting to see what happens when/if Mr. Pak reopens.
By the year 2025...everyone will have a college degree, mobile phone, email, at least 1 social networking account, a few tweets in their pocket, and a blog.
The chronicles of a young, "prosurburian" urban pioneer, new Washingtonian" adjusting to the terrain of the city (almost a decade later).
