Benning Market & Dollar Plus

Food Hall Benning Market Is Slated to Open East of the Anacostia River | Eater DC

"I'm reporting that Neighborhood Development Co. plans to open an 11,200-square-foot food hall called Benning Market at 3451 Benning Road NE this fall; it's envisioned as a Union Market–style collection of food stalls, with a brewery or co-working space possibly in the mix. The project has raised $191,000 on crowdfunding site Small Change, meeting its minimum goal, and CEO Adrian Washington says he sees the area as an up-and-coming neighborhood with a strong base of middle-class homeowners but few retail options—calling it a food desert." - Adele Chapin
