NAVY YARD— According to Barred in DC, the city has denied Bardo Big River a liquor license due to potential transportation, parking, and noise concerns. Plans for the massive beer garden have been in the works for about a year. They can file a motion for ABRA to reconsider, but this development should significantly delay the opening that was planned for spring. [Barred in DC]
