Click to see the images: The new rooftop deck and bar at MOVA Lounge, 14th and W Streets NW. (Luis Gomez Photos)

See the photos of Mova’s new rooftop deck.
It is summertime and it is all about patios and rooftops. So it is an early evening and you feel like just sitting and sipping on a beer or a gin and tonic while chatting with friends. MOVA’s new rooftop deck and bar is open all week, with the bar open Thursday through Saturday (you can still get a drink downstairs and take it upstairs on other nights).
With about 1,000 square feet, lounge chairs, sofas and high tables — and the bar right there — it is a great open space to enjoy the blue sky. The MOVA Rooftop invites conversation, with white walls and soft lights adding to the atmosphere. It feels very city-like with views of the surrounding buildings. But the greenery around it brings a touch of nature to it.
MOVA was originally called Halo and was located on the 1400 block of P Street NW. The new name was a take on owner Babak Movahedi‘s name and part of the lounge’s rebranding. Eventually MOVA closed its location on P Street and moved to 2204 14th Street NW (at W Street), where it opened early this year.

9:30 Club Brings Home the Bacon
The 9:30 Club picked up the Top Club award at the 2011 Billboard Touring Awards. As MetroWeekly says, the award is entirely based on attendance, which shows just how popular the venue is for concerts. The amazing (though entirely believable) part is that these awards cover the globe before handing out these awards — which means that the Borderstan hot spot is the top attended club in the world. Congrats, 9:30!
Mova Moves to U Street
U Street Girl gave us a heads up about the opening of Mova, the gay bar formerly located on P Street NW and moved to 14th and W Streets NW. Apparently it did actually open its doors on Friday. I heard the grand opening was only alright and that they weren’t quite ready — but at least the drinks were free. Did anyone go? We want to hear more about it.
From Drinking to Working Out
After you check out Mova, there’s a new workout place opening soon on the U Street corridor. Also from U Street Girl, CrossFit Praxis is scheduled to open a 6,400-square foot facility at 14th Street and Florida Avenue NW. If you sign up on the website by November 15 (yes, tomorrow), you can get a discounted membership. Mark your calendar for the open house next Saturday, November 19, featuring a BBQ and a workout (though the website makes it a little confusing and says that the offer for the discounted membership will still be good through then as well).
Condiments for Charity
Veterans Day was last Friday, and Heinz Ketchup, in conjunction with the Wounded Warriors Project and the USO, put together an interesting way of supporting the troops that is pretty easy to do: just reach for the ketchup. No, not just any bottle, but one of the special ones (like this one shown on WTOP) that has a QR code on it that you scan. You can send a thank you note or like the Heinz Ketchup Facebook page, and Heinz will donate 57 cents to Wounded Warriors for every one.
Got Something to Say?
There’s news to be shared around the city. We’ve posted about looking for contributors (and yes, we’re still looking!). And in case you’re looking for a more full-time commitment, DCist is in need of a new editor-in-chief as Aaron Morrissey steps down.

Hot to Trot
Part of the reason we love Counter Culture coffee is the fact that you can’t just buy this sustainably harvested fair trade bean anywhere. Luckily, Peregrine now has a new Pedaler by Peregrine coffee delivery program that brings Counter Culture to you. On Thursdays between noon and 4 pm, Peregrine staff members will bring your whole bean coffee right to your door if you live between Columbia Road and H Street NW, as far east as 7th Street NW and as far west as Rock Creek Parkway. In true Peregrine style, you’ll also receive a bean bio of your roast and a discount on coffee brewing equipment. Visit the Pedaler by Peregrine website to start your coffee subscription using a 10% coupon.
Street Fair Fare at H Street
For a view of a different neighborhood (without a liquor license moratorium, for now), make the trek to H Street NE for their 2011 Festival. It runs noon to 7 pm and includes street parades, a pie eating contest, drum lines and marching bands — essentially, all the things that make street fairs awesome. There will also be food from the local restaurants, a fleet of food trucks, local artists and vendors.
DC Huffington Post Launches
Do we need a California-based identity with a national base of contributors to launch a blog to cover ‘real’ DC from a hyperlocal perspective? We’re not scared of the competition! It will be interesting to see how the venture works with the HuffPo logo and brand with a decidedly local to DC focus. If it succeeds, it may be due to their pick of an editor — Michael Grass, the co-founder of DCist. Check out his explanation of the HuffPostDC venture here.
Senate Version of DC Spending Bill Does Not Include Abortion Ban
In the ongoing battle of DC’s rights and the GOP agenda, DC scored a point or two for autonomy in the budget battle. While federal funds are still blocked from paying for abortion, the city tax revenue can continue to fund abortion in the city limits. The Washington Post reports on the Senate draft bill which will now go to the full appropriations committee for a vote. It remains to be seen what the House of Representatives will do with the city funding provision, though.
Streetscaping Back On the Ledger for Georgia Avenue
Score one for Ward One and their attempt at beautifying Georgia Avenue NW. After a protracting battle with the Mayor, Councilmember Jim Graham emerged with $1.44 million in restored funds for the project, Washington Examiner reports. Of course, while we are all for trees, it leaves a budget shortfall for renovating an old warehouse for DC police. What do you think of the budget shifting?
Venue Openings in DC Gay Nightlife
Expect Phase 1 to take over the former Apex space and Mova to reopen on the busy 14th Street NW strip shortly, says the Washington Blade. Also expect (or hope, or protest, depending on your inclination towards bars on 17th Street NW) a new inhabitant in the old Club Chaos space. Uproar Lounge and Restaurant has launched a Facebook page and hopes to open this summer. However, no one has come forward to try to claim the existing liquor license for Chaos, which would be necessary to open given the area’s liquor license moratorium. Expect more uproar over Uproar before it’s all said and done.
New Chef at DC9
The rock and roll bar has seen quite a few changes in the past year, but this is one of the more welcomed ones. They’ve hired Amber Bursik, who has worked with top DC names like Frank Ruta (Palena) and Barton Seaver (formerly of Hook). There are some seriously delicious sounding Southern-inspired dishes on the menu (anyone that doesn’t like fried green tomatoes may not like puppies and the flag) and some vegetarian dishes as well, such as her take on Red Beans & Rice.

Snow
Apparently, DC is now the Bermuda Triangle of snow coverage.
What’s Next for MOVA Lounge?
Gone, but not really even gone and certainly not forgotten is MOVA Lounge. Borderstan has confirmed with owner Babak Movahedi that MOVA Lounge will definitely reopen in a new location in “late spring.” Movahedi also confirmed that the new location will be in the “U Street corridor,” but would say no more. MetroWeekly reported in the fall that MOVA was in Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization last fall; Movahedi told Borderstan that the company came out of bankruptcy on December 17.
Halo at 1435 P Street NW is now Mova. (Luis Gomez Photos)
Halo Lounge on P Street changed its name to Mova on New Year’s Day. The new name is a take on owner Babak Movahedi‘s name and part of the lounge’s rebranding.
Mova’s Facebook page explains the lounge’s evolution from Halo to Mova as well as planned design changes and a plan to become more environmentally friendly:
