Patch Georgetown, DC --Olivia Macaron is the latest confirmed tenant in the renovated Shops at Georgetown Park. The shop will be on the M Street level across from Dean & Deluca.
Owner Anna Claudia Lopez received Advisory Neighborhood Commission approval Monday for signage for her Georgetown store, which will bring macarons—confectioneries made of sweet meringue—to M Street.
Macaron Bee, another independent macaron store, opened on Wisconsin Avenue last May and has become a popular choice among locals for a sweet treat or a dinner party gift.
Lopez told Patch she does not yet have a website or Facebook page for her new business, in part because she's been working away at getting permits to the new space in the mall.
