DUPONT CIRCLE—The National Trust for Historic Preservation has sold their headquarters to the public policy research group American Enterprise Institute for an undisclosed price. Naturally, the building is a historic landmark and AEI has to protect it under certain covenants. [GlobeSt]
GEORGETOWN—The online bidding for the West Heating Plant had a soft close set for today at 5pm. But the terms of the 'soft close' mean that the highest bidder has to maintain the lead for twenty-four hours. At the time of this post the highest bid was $5,200,001 so if no one else bids before tomorrow mid-afternoon that will be the winner. [GSA]
