[quote=Anonymous]Trying to understand why a certain type of DCUMer always wants to paint Georgetown as dead and old and not "vibrant." Have you been there in the last, say, 10 years? Expensive as it ever was, yes. But Ligne Roset isn't exactly "fusty." Meanwhile, your darling of-the-moment restaurants are all in neo-ye-olde-town-centre developments that were built in the last 5 years but manage to keep a city address. see, e.g., all of 14th street. Tail up Goat's boring-ass building. "Blagden Alley" as a destination concept. ALL of "NoMa," Monroe "street market", RI avenue's puzzling nonsense. The entire insta-town that surrounds the Nationals and the cheesy "Wharf" for that matter. Is this where you were thinking Ellington should go? "NoMa" maybe? Perhaps above the exciting Whole Foods in the re-imagined Shaw, where we've removed all the historic community by pricing them out? [/quote]
