One stroll through Mosaic District and you’ll think you’ve landed somewhere between Capitol Hill and Bethesda.

DC’s favorite shops and restaurants are flocking to Mosaic District, a $150 million Edens development with retail anchors such as Matchbox Restaurant, Black’s, Cava, MOM’s Organic Market, Nieman Marcus Last Call Studio, Dawn Price Baby, Anthropologie, South Moon Under, Angelika Film Center and much, much more. Target, the largest retailer at Mosaic District, will open its doors this Sunday, October 14th.  A full list of retailers, opening dates and events is available at the Mosaic District website.


Also onsite are new townhomes by DC’s leading urban developer, EYA. The townhomes at Mosaic District feature three and four bedroom floorplans, contemporary architecture, garage parking, plus the company’s signature rooftop terraces. New homes start from the mid $600s and include luxury finishes such as hardwood flooring, granite countertops and stainless steel appliances.

DC's Union Market to Open Saturday

1 comments

D.C's long-anticipated Union Market hall opens in D.C. this Saturday, September 8th.  The opening heralds what many hope will be an ongoing revitalization of the eastern downtown area, as well as the NoMa neighborhood.  With the new market the city has two working market halls - institutions known worldwide as centers of trade, exchange, and community.  The market is located between 5th and 6th Streets NE north of Florida Ave. and east of New York Ave., and held a preview party in July.  The city's other market hall, the historic Eastern Market, is located in Capitol Hill.

The grand opening Saturday will be followed on Sunday by the second annual DC Scoop artisan ice cream competition from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m.  There is no admission cost.  Market hours will be Friday, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday, 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. until November, when the market will be open six days a week.

"We think that Union Market will be a terrific asset for NoMa residents and business," Robin-Eve Jasper, president of the NoMa Buiness Improvement District (BID) told DCMud. "For us, it is a first step in what is going to be a fabulous addition to the overall NoMa neighborhood."

Vendors include Rappahannok River Oysters Co., a 100-year-old, family-owned oyster farm, Buffalo and Bergen, a soda shop / bar run by a mixologist named Gina Chersevani, a boutique curated by food writer Amanda McClements, Righteous Cheese, which launched a successful fundraiser on KickStarter to help start up its business, Peregrine Espresso, Lyon Bakery, Trickling Springs Creamery, Harvey's Market, Oh! Pickles, Almaala Farms, DC Empanadas, and TaKorean.

The grand opening also marks a renovation victory in the face of a fire which did serious damage in November, 2011. The fire displaced vendors, including Harvey's Market, a meat shop which will reopen in the new market.

According to Edens, the market's developer, it will feature space for up to 40 vendors and "the finest food artisans ranging from up-and-coming entrepreneurs to well-known restauranteurs" and will operate year-round.  Union Market is located in the former Union Terminal Market Hall, which was built in 1967, and has been renovated, although market activity on the site dates back to 1802. The architectural firm on the project is JCA Architects.

The building sits on a cluster of six parcels which Edens, a South Carolina-based firm, owns or manages.  The building is the sole (for now) refurbished structure on the fringe of a 27-acre area known alternately as Florida Avenue Market or Capital City Market.  This larger expanse of parking lots, loading docks, and food retailers is comprised of 120 lots with dozens of different owners.

In 2009, the Office of Planning developed a Florida Avenue Small Area Plan with various site stakeholders.  In addition to a recommendation for a mixed-use area of commercial and residential spaces, the plan also sketches out a long-term vision for a walkable area linking pedestrians destined for the Florida Avenue market area with the New York / Florida Avenue Metro, NoMa, and neighboring Gallaudet University campus.

Gallaudet University, with its campus just across 6th Street east of the market, is another major property owner and stakeholder in the zone.  In 2009, it was a participant in planning talks for the area.   The University has recently submitted a campus master plan for DC Zoning Commission review, according to planning office officials.  Gallaudet owns four acres adjoining the Union Market site which is currently being used as a parking lot, but has no plans to redevelop its portion in the near future.

“The opening of Union Market is great," Harriet Tregoning, Director of the DC Office of Planning, told DCMud. "OP looks forward to seeing our plans being implemented."

NoMa BID president Robin-Eve Jasper echoed those hopes.  "I think that the first piece coming to reality - the Union Market - will be a real catalyst as far as seeing those plans move forward."

The Future Union Market Debuts

4 comments
The Union Market, set to open in September



DC's Union Market, housed in the former Union Terminal Market hall at 5th and Florida, NE, and being revitalized by Edens, hosted a preview party this Saturday.  The soon-to-open venue's "Summer Picnic Spectacular" featured numerous local food trucks and future market vendors performing their trade inside and outside.

Despite a persistent drizzle, a large, age-diverse crowd gathered at Union Market to get a sneak peak, eat, and listen to local DJs including SoulCall Paul.  The new Union Market is set to open in September.  For an entry fee, the building was open to the public for one-time only preview before the building's official opening.  JCA Architects is the project's architectural firm.


The interior features an open, market-hall style space with exposed ventilation, drop lighting, and stalls for at least 40 future vendors.  Union Market adjoins the NoMA Business Improvement District (BID) and is situated in a larger neighborhood of 100 wholesale food vendors and businesses employing more than 1,500 people in food production and distribution, according to the Union Market web site.

The Union Market web site includes a comprehensive history of the Union Terminal market.  The outdoor portion of that market opened to the public in 1931 but moved inside to the current Union Market structure, built in 1967, when the District banned the outdoor sale of meat and eggs, according to Edens' historical information. 

The restored Union Market will also feature 11 restaurants, DCMud has reported.

Today in Pictures - Union Market

5 comments
Union Market - formerly known as the Capital City Market - is readying for its debut as D.C.'s newest culinary destination. Edens and developer J Street are redeveloping the historic site to create a "best-in class, year-round, indoor food market." More than 40 local vendors may set-up shop in the new Union Market, say its promoters.

Various plans were considered for the site before settling on the Edens plan. Union Market will celebrate its reopening June 3 with Sunday Supper in conjunction with the James Beard Foundation. The site has been the intended target of a much larger redevelopment project, but remedial work is now underway on the site for its conversion to a restaurant haven. Below are recent photos of the undeveloped site.
