The Deck is officially reopening. I honestly never imagined that a few signatures could bring back a neighborhood institution but you all proved me wrong. This win belongs entirely to the people who stood by this place when it felt like we were fighting a losing battle.

We, the undersigned, as loyal patrons and neighbors of the Deck, are outraged by the recent closure of the outside bar. D.C., Georgetown, and Glover Park have suffered the loss of a neighborhood institution. If the voices of a few curmudgeons can close a bar, we hope the signatures of hundreds can reopen it. We agree to boycott the Savoy Hotel until The Deck is restored to its previous form.

I never imagined that so many of you felt the same way about losing our spot. The stories you have been sharing in the comments are the real reason this movement is still moving forward.

I am honestly stunned by the momentum this has gained lately. This belongs entirely to those of you who decided that our neighborhood spot was worth fighting for.

Neighborhood institutions matter more than some new residents complaining about noise. Open it back up!

This place has been a staple for years. Totally ridiculous that a few people moving into the area can just kill a local business.
