Good morning, Leesburg.
Hummus Republic is set to open a 1,400 s.f. space in Herndon Centre off Elden Street next to Chicken Salad Chick today—marking its first Virginia location.
The brand also is planning a second site at South Riding Town Center in Loudoun County—taking over the space formerly used by Pollo X Peruvian chicken restaurant.
County officials are moving ahead with an 18-mile trail called the Signature Project in eastern Loudoun after the finance committee endorsed the plan last week — the project will help form a 40-mile loop and some construction is expected to begin as early as fiscal year 2027.
It will now move to the full board for further review.
Loudoun County Transit will raise commuter bus one-way fares by $1 for trips to Crystal City, Rosslyn, the Pentagon and Washington, D.C. starting December 1 due to rising operational costs—fares will be $12 with a SmarTrip card and $13 for cash.
