It was designated a National Historic District in 1951, preserving its unique architecture and history that set it apart from the rest of Washington, DC. Today more than 450 stores, restaurants and institutions make Georgetown your destination neighborhood for dining, shopping, and exploring!

BOOK HILL
M STREE T / WISCONSIN AVENUE
CANAL WATERFRONT DISTRIC T
Up along Wisconsin Avenue, small, independent boutiques, art galleries, and restaurants make up the charming area known as Book Hill. From Book Hill Park you can take in a view of Georgetown, the Potomac River, and Virginia beyond.
M Street is Georgetown’s main street, connecting the neigh-borhood to Foggy Bottom and Downtown DC to the east and Virginia via Key Bridge to the west. It is also recognized as one of the best shopping streets in the country. The intersection of M Street and Wisconsin Avenue is the heart of Georgetown, with shop-lined streets extending in all four directions.
Between M Street and the Potomac River is the first mile of the C&O Canal, which stretches west for more than 180 miles from its origination in Georgetown. The canal and Georgetown Waterfront Park are the defining elements of Georgetown’s Canal & Waterfront District, with recreational opportunities, cafes and restaurants, remnants of the neighborhood’s industrial past, and nooks and crannies to be explored.

Once a tobacco port town of Maryland, Georgetown predates the nation’s capital by 40 years. You can discover that histo-ry at sites such as the Old Stone House, one of the oldest known remaining struc-tures in Washington, DC, built in 1765. Now a National Park, the Old Stone House commemorates the daily lives of George-town’s early residents.
BEFORE THERE WAS WASHINGTON,THERE WAS GEORGE TOWN
HISTOR y ON EVER y CORNER
TAKE A TOUR
History beckons at every turn in Georgetown. The C&O Canal is a National Historic Park with miles of hiking and biking trails. Along the canal and south toward the Potomac River you’ll see artifacts of Georgetown’s early industrial history. Further north in Georgetown’s residential area are historic house museums that tell the stories of Georgetown’s early prominent residents. And all along M Street and Wis-consin Avenue shops, restaurants, and offices bring modern life into the neighborhood’s historic row-houses. The City Tavern Club on M Street, now a pri-vate social club, once hosted guests including Thom-as Jefferson, George Washington, and John Adams.
Georgetown’s history is part of what makes it so special; discover more on a walking tour of the neighborhood. Follow The African American Heritage Trail to see the churches and residences that were at the heart of Georgetown’s African American community in the 19th and 20th centuries. Or trace the path of those most iconic Georgetown residents, the Kennedys, to see where they lived, worshipped, worked and played. In addition to guided tours of beautiful Georgetown estates and gardens, scenic tours of the area are available daily, as are a variety of guided walking tours.

NEIGHBORHOOD EVENTS
The ever-popular Georgetown French Market event brings over 5,000 attendees to the streets of Georgetown every April. Participating Book Hill merchants set up tables along Wisconsin Avenue from P Street to Reservoir Road with wares up to 70% off. Sale merchandise includes clothing, shoes, housewares, jewelry, furniture, and more. Live music, French fare, face painting, caricatures and more round out this popular annual event.
An annual celebration of food, wine, and music, the Taste of George-town has been one of Washington, D.C.’s premier neighborhood events for more than 20 years. The Taste features dozens of Georgetown’s finest restaurants showcasing delectable dishes, as well as craft beer pairings, live music, an Iron Chef-style competition, live music, and family-friendly activities. Held annually in September, the Taste of Georgetown attracts around 10,000 people and proceeds from the event benefit Georgetown Ministry Center’s homeless services.
Georgetown is known as DC’s destination for fashion, art, and design. Spanning over three days and nights, FAD fuses all components of Georgetown’s art, fashion, and design communities for a variety of events, including progressive style parties, interactive public art proj-ects, street style, gallery walks, design showroom activities, red carpets and more. FAD returns for its second year in October 2014. You can stay up to date throughout the year by following us on Facebook - FAD: Fashion Art Design Georgetown or on Twitter @FADGeorgetown!
