Here is the reference in this post on the DC Zoning rewrite initiative:

Some, like Big Bear Coffee in Bloomingdale, end up occupying buildings that were once commercial but whose zoning is now residential, which sets them up for a big zoning fight when someone objects. More often, neighborhoods just don't get any stores.

                        
See the comment that I posted:

Thankfully, the Big Bear Cafe upzoning fight from R-4 to C-2-A is over. The Big Bear property achieved it pursued zoning change up to C-2-A.
