Column: In the Kennedy Center closure, DC risks losing a pillar of culture (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Earlier this month, the Kennedy Center’s Board of Trustees voted to immediately shut the center down for renovations following a federal judge’s ruling barring officials from reinstating President Donald Trump’s name on the building.

Officials have informed the GW communi

Read excerpt
In late July, Amazon filed with Loudoun County an application seeking approval for the construction of four new data centers on GW’s Virginia Science and Technology Campus, totaling over 800,000 square feet.
