J. Crew Men’s Store in Logan Circle to Open This Fall

September 30, 2016

J. Crew is scheduled to start selling men’s clothing in an infamous Logan Circle building in the coming months.

The retailer’s Men’s Shop is slated to open at 1618 14th St. NW in November, according to signs spotted on the forthcoming store’s windows today. The 14th Street building once was known for its “men’s parties” sex club events, which came to an end after a man died there in 2009.

The new signage features a man with a suit and a tie hammering a nail near text that says, “Caution: Gentlemen at Work.”

The clothing chain announced last October it would open a shop in Logan Circle. It started to look for people to work there in March.

J. Crew also is planning to put in a Madewell women’s clothing store on 14th Street. It isn’t clear when or exactly where that store will open.

A J. Crew representative wasn’t immediately available to comment.
