I was in Georgetown for the first time in quite a while and was struck by how many vacant storefronts there are on Wisconsin Avenue. If a trendy, overpriced little store can't survive in Georgetown, where can it? There were far more empty stores than I've been seeing in Dupont Circle, Woodley Park, or Adams Morgan. Maybe if people could get there without dealing with traffic and parking those stores would be doing better... ---------------------------------------- John Whiteside / jwhitesi@concentric.net http://www.concentric.net/~jwhitesi
