Photos: The Unwrapping of Cork Market

This story cross-posted at ReadysetDC: "Streetfront: Cork Market"

I'm excited to see these guys work on Cork Market, because for a while there we couldn't see construction. They are getting ready for business, as you can see from the permits. The place is located at 1805 14th Street NW (b/w Home Rule and Pulp DC), on what used to be El Paraiso Market. One of the guys loved getting his picture taken; another one busy painting. Pella logos all over the exterior for now--nothing distinctly Cork.

Metrocurean's Amanda McClements has a "before" shot of the place, and the complete scoop on Cork's new space. I met Amanda at Passenger DC's media party. (She's the girl on the left in this photo).

You guys know I don't do food stuff, hah, so follow this awesome district foodie on Twitter.
