The Neighborhood:
U Street hums with memory. Every block a verse in the city’s song, every storefront and mural a reflection of D.C.’s vibrant soul. Once called "Black Broadway," this stretch of cityscape has long been a cradle of culture, rhythm, and revolution. The echoes of jazz still linger in the air, where Duke Ellington’s legacy lives on through hidden speakeasies and street performers spilling notes into the night. Days begin with a strong coffee and a seat outside, where the neighborhood slowly wakes beneath colorful rowhouses and streetcars buzzing by. Vintage shops, art galleries, and late-night diners line the sidewalks, each one with a story folded into its walls. And when the sun dips low, U Street comes alive in a different light: laughter spilling from rooftop bars, the scent of global spices drifting from tucked-away kitchens, and live music pulsing from behind heavy velvet curtains. It’s a place where history doesn’t just live, it dances, sings, and stirs your spirit.
Getting Around:
Metro Station: U Street/African-American Civil War Memorial/Cardozo (Green & Yellow Lines), frequent Metrobus service runs along 14th and U Streets
Local Gems:
- Ben’s Chili Bowl: An iconic diner that’s been serving chili dogs and half-smokes since 1958
- 9:30 Club: Legendary music venue where intimate shows light up the night
- Busboys and Poets: A beloved bookstore café and gathering place for artists, activists, and storytellers
