Things Within Walking Distance

Georgetown is a vibrant shopping, business, and residential community, even without the University.  While we encourage residents to explore the great city of DC beyond Georgetown, most basic needs can be met within reasonable walking distance of the University.  Some resources include

  • Pharmacy (CVS on Wisconsin Avenue)
  • Grocery Stores (Safeway and Whole Foods on Wisconsin Avenue)
  • Restaurants (well over 100 within 10 blocks of the university)
  • Banks (in addition to the banks on campus, there are branches of major banks nearby)
  • Outdoor Recreation (students can paddle on the river or bike/run on the C&O canal towpath)

For more about activities, events, and resources in Georgetown, please visit the Chamber of Commerce website for DC.

 

In this space, you can find events being hosted by our department, our student groups, Community Councils, and in Alumni Lounge. To determine if the event is open, and other details, click on the link for each event.
