Georgetown has always attracted people of influence, from George Washington to Francis Scott Key, Alexander Graham Bell to Herman Hollerith, John and Jackie Kennedy to Julia Child, Bradley Cooper to Olivia Wilde to name a few. Politicians, writers, inventors, artists, real estate developers, and all sorts of businesspeople come for the same reasons — the lifestyle and its proximity to the seat of power in the nation’s capital. All its charming properties, Georgetown University, brick sidewalks lined with boutiques, shops and restaurants make the neighborhood what it is today: thriving, vibrant, and full of energy.
The newspaper whose influence far exceeds its size.
