Stores on the Horizon

The monthly OGB agenda again provides us with a peek at some new stores on the horizon. J Crew This first one is not a surprise, as word was already out that this move was coming. But these plans appear to confirm that the recently closed J Crew is reopening in the old Brooks Brothers building at 30th and M: As someone whose wardrobe is basically almost all J Crew, this news comes as a relief to me.

The State of Georgetown Preview

I finally got around to performing my annual-ish census of the state of Georgetown. This is the survey I do where I walk up and down the streets keeping track of every establishment that has either opened or closed since the last time I took the snapshot. I’m about 6-8 months overdue, so this snapshot is more like a little over a year and a half since my last one. So the numbers will seem a little more dramatic once I tally them all up. I’m stil…Georgetown, District of Columbia · Georgetown Read Article

Field Guide For Georgetown Homes

Architectural Guide (2)Download Over the weekend I had the pleasure to serve as one of the tour guides for the now annual Architectural Walking Tour put on by the Citizens Association. Doing so reminded me of the field guide for Georgetown Homes that I pulled together a few years ago. I thought I’d share it again in case you missed it. If I can pass along just one piece of information about Georgetown homes it’s this: Despite what real estate li…Georgetown, District of Columbia · Georgetown Read Article

Georgetown Time Machine: In the Jailhouse Now

This week for Georgetown Time Machine, I’m back in the archives of the DC Historical Society (did I ever leave it?) This photo is a fascinating one. It purports to show the “ruins of the old Georgetown Jail” on the west side of Wisconsin Ave. just south of the canal. But is it? The photo is identified as being from between 1923 and 1927. There definitely appears to have been some old ruins that were identified as the old jail, as you can see in …Georgetown, District of Columbia · Georgetown Read Article

FedEx Shop Shipping Out

The FedEx store at 3329 M St. is closing on May 24th. The closest store will now be the one in Glover Park. This is a setback for Georgetown, as this location has long served as a convenient spot to handle larger print/scanning jobs, on top of the ordinary package services. A lesser known service they offer is to hold your Fedex packages for you when you don’t want to risk them getting stolen. (UPS offers a similar service at their N St. locatio…Washington DC · Washington Read Article

Tuckernuck Takes Over Former Foxtrot

Tuckernuck, the women’s clothing brand, is moving up Wisconsin Ave. to take over the former Foxtrot space at 1267 Wisconsin. The store has been located at 1055 Wisconsin Ave. since 2016. The brand originated in Georgetown, and this remains their sole physical store. As the brand grows, it has the potential to join a long list of brands with roots in Georgetown, including (in no particular order): Sweet Green Blue Mercury Scout Britches Framebri…Georgetown, District of Columbia · Georgetown See the Story

As part of Georgetown University’s effort to keep the neighborhood tidy during student move out, the school hauls all the bulk trash that the students need to get rid of.

Georgetown Time Machine: Hideaway Club

This week for Georgetown Time Machine I’m checking out one of the many music clubs that once dotted Georgetown. This particular club was down on K St. and it was called the Hideaway Club. The photo comes courtesty again of the DC Historical Society. The photo description is brief, merely stating that it’s of the “Hide-Away Club on north side of K Street NW, under the Whitehurst Freeway.” and that it’s from 1951. But it only took some light histo…Georgetown, District of Columbia · Georgetown Read Article
