Even though, my family lived up the hill near Wisconsin and Massachusetts Aves, I attended Holy Trinity School during the 1960s and belonged to JeIleff Boys Club and always felt that I grew up in Georgetown. As a child, I loved reading the Current and Georgetowner every week, usually sitting in one of the big leather chairs at Riggs waiting for my mother. I think growing up will all the wonderful old Federal and Second Empire houses gave me my love for history and architecture. I love to read and wax nostalgic about my long lost hometown. Last time we were in Washington, I took my daughter to lunch at Clyde’s (what happened to the spooks!) and we walked around, she seemed to enjoy the old neighborhood. Bravo.

Can you help in any way in creating a buzz to encourage a useful tenant to go into the griffian market space? Chicken Out is one obvious possibility, but anything that provides prepared foods — and without the need for the extranous market space — could likely susrvive there. If they don’t have catering — one of Griffin’s great features, we can just go to Wagshals. But the nightly prepared meals are what was really unique in georgetown. Anything you might do to help would be great. Thanks!

Your opinions are so personal, its odd that you decline to take personal ownership of them — and rather use the guise of a newspaper.

Objective opinion is an oxymoron.
