You know what’s exhausting? Walking around shopping all day without taking a load off. Well the BID can hear your dogs barking and want to give you a seat. So they left 50 of the seats you see above around the business district in nooks and crannies.
The idea is an outgrowth of the Georgetown 2028 project and it’s meant to encourage more activation neglected corners of the neighborhood. In non-marketer speak, that means they want people to linger and relax in some of the relatively unused spaces off the beaten path.
These a neat little seats, neat enough, frankly, that they may start wondering off into the region’s backyards and patios. The BID has already announced that they’re so popular that they’re ordering more. Let’s hope that’s more to supplement a stable supply and not simply to replace stolen chairs.
So:
A. Don’t steal these chairs.
B. Take a load off on them instead
