[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]There is a great artisanal meat place in Petworth on Georgia Ave. They make amazing chorizo. I forget the name though. Most artisinal businesses seem to be in the Petworth and Colombia Heights neighborhoods. The creatives in DC tend to migrate to those areas.[/quote] Three little Pigs -- it's already been mentioned upthread. They tend to move to those areas because the rents are butt-crack cheap compared to Dupont or Cleveland Park or Gallery Place. You can't make $7.000 a month rent selling salami -- er,[u] sal-U-mi[/u], sorry -- for $5 a log.[/quote] Lemme guess, you haven't been shopping for commercial space in DC lately, have you. I have. Rents along the 14th Street corridor, and, increasingly, 11th Street, in CH are comparable to Georgetown. Seriously, check it out for yourself. Anyone who would refer to rents in Petworth and Columbia Heights as "butt-crack cheap" is at best ill informed and hopelessly behind the times. Probably also seriously biased. (Not to mention pointlessly crude.) You probably still think Harlem is a cheap place to live in NY, amirite?[/quote]
