Georgetown | AllCheapFares

Georgetown neighborhood predates the founding of the District.  Originally an industrial port area, the region has come to be a shoppers paradise and a major element of the DC nightlife.

 

 Buildings here typically date from the mid to late 19th century, which we Americans consider to be old.  All the commercial buildings are built along M St. and Wisconsin Avenue.  The residential neighborhoods are made up of traditional row houses and mansions of the 19th century.

 

Georgetown University is found in the north-west corner of the town, and more. The primary commercial corridors of Georgetown are the intersection of Wisconsin Avenue & M Street, which contain high-end shops, bars, restaurants, and the Georgetown Park enclosed shopping mall, as well as the Washington Harbour waterfront restaurants at K Street, NW, between 30th and 31st Streets.
