This is pretty neat: National Life, an insurance company that does a lot with main streets and small towns, recently wrote about 11th Street NW in Columbia Heights, highlighting it as a great example of main streets.
The blog cites the bars and restaurants, coffee shops, BloomBars, the Gala Theatre (on 14th, but close enough) and others on the street, as well as the New York Times article from a few years calling the street the “hip strip.”
While not a huge publication, it’s always nice to get recognition for our area. National Life has previously highlighted streets around the country.
