Washington Business Journal has the news that Anthropologie, the trendy (and, in this editor's opinion, outrageously overpriced) clothier who has been negotiating for some time to try and get another store inside the District, will be the latest addition to Penn Quarter's burgeoning fashion district. The store will take a space owned by Douglas Development in the 950 F Street development in Penn Quarter -- those spaces have sat empty for around four years, so it's nice to finally see something going in there.

Hang on to Your North Face
WTTG/FOX 5's John Henrehan says that Metro Transit Police are bracing themselves for a winter crime season populated by thieves who steal people's expensive coats, especially ones made by The North Face.
The assistant chief of the agency, Jeff Telinski, told the transit agency's board of directors on Thursday that rail systems on the West Coast are reporting an increase in coat robberies. Coats manufactured by North Face are popular targets.Apparently North Face coats became trendy when I wasn't looking? And here I thought they were the exclusive province of people who live in areas that are so cold that you just can't be bothered to care that you look like the Michelin Man. In any event, Henrehan reports that Transit Police are planning some North Face stings in an effort to nab any potential coat snatchers here in D.C. Still, if say, you moved here from Chicago and brought your North Face with you, watch your back this winter.
