So… what’s the plan? Bakery Square is getting a face-lift, or as we like to call it a refresh!
Bakery Square Refresh is our plan to update the courtyard and incorporate new and exciting elements to bring the space back to life. Construction is underway! Updates in Bakery Square will include a conservatory, food hall concept, outdoor café seating, public plaza, event space, outdoor work spaces, lounge seating, public pathways, connections to shopping and restaurants, and accessible gathering space!
Due to construction, starting on February 10th the Bakery Square Penn Ave entrance will be closed every night from 9PM to 5AM. All traffic will be diverted via signage to the Bakery Square entrance on Dahlem Place. Follow the hashtag #bksqrefresh on Instagram to stay up-to-date on our progress and latest developments.
