This is an event space that serves art gallery, slam poetry venue, concert hall, and more. It is a repurposed church that has been painted and is truly off the beaten path. A great hidden gem to stop by and at least take photos at. See event calendar on Blind Whino's website.

With a bike lane on 4th St SW that goes straight up to the Mall, this would be my recommended way to get around the city. Skip the crowds, enjoy the weather, and zip around the Mall to your monuments, museums, and other destinations of choice.

Food Scene

Station 4 has great brunches and of course lunches and dinners, too. They are a more upscale, American fare establishment. This is a great restaurant to stop in to after a long day for a drink or just casually for lunch.
