One of the listed North Capitol Street NW/NE businesses I have not heard -- Health IT 2 Business Solutions.  A quick Google search shows an address of 1711 North Capitol Street  NE.  

Note that the business owner of Mess Hall DC, whose business is located on Edgewood Road NE, received a vote of support for a liquor license from ANC 5E at the most recent ANC 5E meeting.

Congrats to all of the grant recipients.

And here is the official press release from DSLBD.
