I️ live here and will never leave — here’s my recs:
* If you’re below the age of 30, live as close to Malcolm X park. That means green/yellow or a stretch red line.
* restaurants: lapis, red hen, , any Mexican food north of Columbia heights on 14th
* bars (in order of edginess): green zone, no kisses, snappys, showtime
* venues: 930 (realistically it’s my favorite venue), songbyrd (I’m biased they’re my friends), black cat
* events/dj sets: anything that happens at suns cinema, hdf‘s mega raves, anything at showtime (biased bc that includes me)
