Who said H Street was not HOT?
April 3, 2009 by jessebkaye
I have to admit that I was a bit surprised when I opened the Washington City Paper’s “Best of DC 2009″ this morning (I know I’m a few days late). As I read through the list of Best of’s there was one thing that stood out to me…how many of DC’s Best of’s were on H Street NE.
The area, known for years as a street that has long since seen its Hayday, may be making its comeback. There is a new light rail trolley system coming in 2010 as a part of DC’s ‘Great Streets’ Initiative as well as several other investments the city is making to help improve the street.
Several of DC’s Best of’s include:
Sova Espresso & Wine (Coffee Shop that’s not Starbucks) at 1359 H St NE
Taylor Gourmet (Deli) at 1116 H St NE
Granville Moore (Gastropub) at 1238 H St NE
Granville Moore (Mussels) at 1238 H St NE
If you are looking for a great home in an up-and-coming area, the H Street Corridor may be for you. There is a great building coming up around the corner called the Renee. It might be worth a look for those condo buyers out there.
