Just walk. This is exactly why you are extra fluffy and not sexy anymore.


It’s pretty dangerous to walk around there at night. I know multiple people who have been mugged and badly beaten. I used to live in SW.


But it’s such a VIBRANT AND DIVERSE beating!

Even cheaper - leave it where it is and rename it “Wharf”

Tell me you haven’t lived in DC for that long without telling me.

Flagship and Hogates had amazing rum buns. I’ve seen copycat recipes online.


When Clydes of Georgetown first opened, they copied it. Was good, but not AS good.

The wharf was there before the metro was built. It just wasn't built up with all the new condos and stores.

The wharf was always there. It was there in the 80's when I would go down and party at Hogates. It was there when I would go and eat that nasty Phillips. It was there when I would go and get fresh fish from the vendors. It was skeezy around there at the time, but the wharf was there. The green line did not come until the 90's and at that time, few people exited the navy yard stop. It and the waterfront exits were desolate.

There was stuff there in the 80’s but wasn’t called The Wharf like now, I seem to remember just calling it the ‘fish market’ or ‘Maine avenue’ back then and people knew what meant.
Jessie Taylor seafood and some other vendors are still there, and that area was bigger with more vendors like that so I recall it all looked like that section but just expanded. Then as mentioned down the street where the new stuff is was 2 big restaurants Philips and Hogates.

I kind of do too. My dad loved getting crabs. Had to have been between 75 & 85. Was little.

Land near the water tends to be less stable and less able to support giant heavy trains.
