The Ivy City revival continues: BicycleSPACE has signed a lease to open a shop in the Hecht Warehouse District, the repurposed industrial building at 1512 Okie St. NE. The store says planned for a summer opening.

The new location at the Douglas Development Corporation-owned building will join the bike shop’s other in-development store at 440 K St. NW, which is scheduled to open in spring. Currently BicycleSPACE operates as a pop-up shop out of the former Burger King at 700 5th St NW.

“I am thrilled that BicycleSPACE is going to be part of this transformational Douglas Development project,” said store co-founder Phil Koopman in the press release. “We can’t imagine a better place to meld the old and the new as our city continues to grow.”

BicycleSPACE’s new digs are the latest addition to a rapidly changing Ivy City. The Hecht building already leases a MOM’s Organic Market, with Petco, Nike, and Planet Fitness set to join them soon. Atlas Brew Works, the artist collaborative space OpenStudioDC, and the recently opened One Eight Distilling are right around the corner. Even though City Paper reports a planned Busboys & Poets will no longer open on the site, BicycleSPACE’s presence definitely indicates changes abound for the Northeast neighborhood.
