WHEREIN: We bring you the developments (happening in and around D.C.) that we think are newsworthy, or, at the very least, almost newsworthy:
- If you’re not already nervous about Amazon (maybe) coming to town, this article should change your feelings about it real quick.
- D.C.’s higher end Mexican restaurants are challenging the (kind of racist) perceptions around the cost of Mexican food. I used to notice this shit when I was reading yelp reviews of Oyamel years ago.
- D.C. was inundated with famous folks eating at our restaurants this week. Macron had lunch at Tonic, but more importantly, Kourtney Kardashian hit up Charlie Palmer Steak House and RPM Italian.
- The reason why there haven’t been any Mike Isabella updates is because both sides have agreed to not to speak to the media.

- Surprise surprise, the Silver Line extension is running into some problems.
- Curbed goes deep into the history of the Watergate, arguably the most famous hotel / apartment / retail complex in the United States.

- This story will melt you heart (spoiler alert: it’s about cute dogs).
