In The Tube Arriving At GP
This is the best way to get to Gallery Place. Tell GP Living how you get here and what you like to do once you arrive…
Corridor Round Up: E Street

A small corridor has taken shape between 7th and 13th Streets with some recent openings adding to the mix in the heart of the corridor between 11th and 12th. Here’s the round [...]

Anon pointed us to this well rounded blog posting with lots of details about the upcoming Newseum – opening in 2007. Lastly, I snapped two pics of the current state of [...]

Brian, from VIDA Fitness, sends us an update on their new fitness center/salon at 601 F St. I must note that Brian is one of the first local businesses to discover & reach out to the Gallery Place Living blog.
