This week for Georgetown Time Machine, I’m digging back into the 20 year old photos. This particular 1993 photo is of the former Hatum Valet at 1661 Wisconsin Ave.
Hatum Valet appears to have been a straightforward cobbler. The store later moved up to the 1800 block of Wisconsin. At least that’s what I wrote in 2011. I also wrote that they became Sky Valet. But I can’t actually find any evidence for why I thought that was the case. So maybe I was way off base!
This building is now occupied by Ally Banks Interiors. For many years it was Rooms With a View. Further back, in the 1950’s it was an antiques store called the Attic:
