This week for Georgetown Time Machine, I’m back with the 1993 photos. This block is the 3200 block of M St. Today it hosts (from left to right) Dyptique, Lululemon, and Faherty. But 20 years ago it hosted a pizza shop, Too Cute, Nash’s Sports store, and Machu Picchu restaurant.
The pizza shop I spoke about recently. It split the space with a Burrito Bros. next door. It closed around the time that Georgetown’s role as a nightlife destination began to slip.
I couldn’t find anything on Too Cute! Under the Too Cute! neon lights, it looks like it says something like Junetto Brothers, or something like that. It appears to have been an inexpensive clothing store.
Nash’s Sports & Casual was a sporting goods store. I believe that the Nash’s in Columbia Heights that lasted until 2012 was part of the same chain. I’m not sure when the Georgetown location closed.
Machu Picchu was a South American restaurant. They appeared on an ANC agenda as late as 2002 regarding a liquor license renewal. But their license was one of the licenses held in safe keeping many years after the restaurant closed, so the fact it was renewed in 2002 doesn’t mean the restaurant was still open. Anyone remember it?
