U Street Music Hall , a popular DC landmark is closing its doors.
According to the owner, the closing is due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.
There is no easy way to say this, but here we go: It is with tremendous sadness that we share with you today that U Street Music Hall is closing effective immediately. When we closed our doors to the public this past March none of us could have imagined at the time that we would still be closed nearly seven months later with no return date in sight because of the unrelenting disease called COVID-19. Our team like so many others in the industry that has been turned upside down — worked tirelessly over the the past seven months to see us trough this extended closure. But due to the pandemic, mounting operational costs that never paused even while we were closed, and no clear timeline for when clubs like ours can safely reopen, we had no choice recently but to make this heartbreaking decision – U Street Music Hall
