I am trying to find some information about the renovation to the shops
at National Place which is located at 13th and Fst in Washington DC. 
Anything that you might be able to provide me would be very helpful.

Dear stephenh-ga;

Information about the renovation of the Shops At National Place in
Washington, DC is sparse but since you indicated that you would accept
?any? information I am posting what I managed to find.

According to The Washington Chapter of American Institute for
Architects the project you mentioned is apparently being overseen by a
Bethesda Maryland architectural firm called, Soe Lin & Associates,
that specializes in blending Asian architecture with other concepts:

Soe Lin & Associates can be contacted here:

SOE LIN & ASSOCIATES
4340 East West Highway Suite 105
Bethesda Maryland 20814
TEL: 301-986-9300
FAX: 301-986-0500

From what I gather the renovation is an ongoing effort that originally
began in 2004 and the intent of the renovation is to ultimately turn
the formerly inward-looking retail space outward toward F Street and
upscale the food court.

Request for Answer Clarification by stephenh-ga on 03 Nov 2005 08:45 PST

Thank you for the information which you provided me, but really I am
looking for more indepth information about the renovation such as the
particular details about the project it'self. I would think that an
article somewhere had to be written about the project. Also I would
like to see a picture of the newly renovated area if it is available. 
Some additional information would be very helpful.

I did not find any photos or additional articles. What I provided was
based specifically in your criteria of, "ANYTHING that you might be
able to provide me would be very helpful."

Unfortunately, the "anything" I was able to provide was "everything" I
managed to find.
