It’s no secret that the District is becoming one of the country’s premier food cities. The talk of the town is not just about what’s happening on The Hill, but also Rose’s Luxury’s wait time and the newest restaurants opening in every neighborhood.

Prequel, a new venture by DC-based startup EquityEats, is bringing to DC, what no other city in the world has. Prequel is a five-story, 17,000-sq-ft restaurant pop-up megaplex in Penn Quarter (in the former LivingSocial event space 918 F street). Prequel will host over 100 ticketed restaurant pop-ups with up to five different pop-ups at a time, including a speakeasy-style bar in the building’s basement. What’s even more exciting is that all DC residents can invest in the concept for as little as $100.

Prequel is the first company authorized by the DC government to facilitate investment-based crowdfunding. Over 175 DC residents have already invested in the groundbreaking project. The investment opportunity is still open for another two weeks until the company meets its goal of $200,000, which is already over 65% complete. In addition to their equity in the business, investors at all levels are given access to perks at Prequel ranging from special preview pop-ups to exclusive access to Prequel’s VIP lounge.

Prequel’s gorgeous space in Penn Quarter is listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and witnessed history by overlooking John Wilkes Booth’s escape down the adjoining alley after his fatal attack on President Lincoln. History aside, the building enjoys a central location—it’s just steps from the Verizon Center as well as the Spy Museum.
