This Indigenous People’s Weekend, Washington Walks is offering a series of guided tours that bring DC’s neighborhoods and stories to life. From the bustling streets of U Street and Columbia Heights to the historic landscapes of Rock Creek Park, Georgetown, and Walter Reed, each tour invites you to experience the city’s full, complex history.
Join professional tour guide Carolyn Crouch on this Capital Riverfront tour. See how newly-created public parks and industrial buildings repurposed as residences and restaurants are attracting locals and visitors to Capitol Riverfront, a 500-acre from-scratch neighborhood along the Anacostia River that has grown by leaps and bounds since the first developer’s shovel broke ground in 2003.
