The Wharf

Located in the heart of DC between the National Mall and the Potomac River, the Southwest and The Wharf neighborhood offers a fascinating mix of fine dining and bustling lunch spots, boutique shops and neighborhood amenities, and some of the District’s hottest music venues. Tree-lined streets guide pedestrians from the Smithsonian museums toward Southwest’s shopping and dining hubs at L’Enfant Plaza and Federal Center, while waterfront views and rooftop vistas beckon boaters, foodies, and music lovers to The Wharf’s promenade full of bars, restaurants, and boutiques.
