Living In Southwest Waterfront
Southwest Waterfront has been reimagined with the introduction of the Wharf. Catch a concert at the Anthem or dinner at Michelin star restaurants. Southwest Waterfront is now a weekend destination for thousands of visitors. Branch out from the ballparks toward Jazz Night in Southwest and the beautifully situated capital for American theatre, the Arena Stage.Â
What Locals Say
Places To See
Captain White’s Seafood City sells fresh-caught seafood on the Southwest Waterfront. If eating seafood isn’t your deal, then Washington Marina is a great place to enjoy a dock-side picnic. Branch out from the ballparks and catch a live performance at one of the many venues at The Wharf, including The Anthem, Arena Stage, Union Stage, or the Floating Barge. In the cooler months enjoy the Ice Skating Rink and fire pits, while and in the warmer months take a ride on a paddle boat or a day cruise.
Always Something To Do
Southwest is perfect for locals and tourist with new retail options, including the Made In DC store, which that sells all local goods. Check out the latest DC restaurants near the water like Hanks Oyster Bar, Del Mar De Fabio Trabocchi, Kith and Kins, Tiki TNT or Mi Vida. Don’t forget dessert at local favorites Dolcezza Gelato, District Doughnuts, and Camp Wharf at the Firepit. Whatever fun you’re looking for it can be found at The District Wharf on The Waterfront.
