The front of the shops of 2000 Penn.

This block-long, mixed-use commercial space at 2000 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, was constructed in the 1980s behind a group of Victorian townhouses. Owned by GW, it includes shops and restaurants on the lower level and first floor, and offices on the upper floors. The structure?s facade holds the distinction of being the only stretch of architecture between the White House and Washington Circle that retains its historic character without intrusion.
