Guys, this is a waste of time, they're bragging about a Nordstrom Department Store LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!! You know, the store you can find all over the United States in almost every region. Judging by the comment about fashion heavy hitters "Nike and Banana Republic," we're wasting our time with this one lol.....

I can't...LOL.....



This is like the giant and the ant hill. Just let this thread die!

Another Flagship store to open in DC, at the Uline Area where the Beatles had there're first ever american performance. Although this is not in downtown, but coming across a REI flagship store is very rare in a sense that there are not many locations. DC will have one of the few flagship locations besides Soho, Denver, etc.

Why in the world would people brag about chain retail stores being located in Downtown? Every suburb and shopping mall in America have these same retail stores.

I'd put more consideration into museums over chain stores and surely DC dominates in that capacity.

That's a lie.

I don't hate D.C. at all. I just can't stand the unbridled boosterism, the superior tone many of you take for no reason and the fact that so many of you are delusional when it comes to what a real Downtown actually is.

And reading comprehension is important. Seattle has two large flagship DEAPARTMENT STORES Downtown. Remember those? I'm not talking about some little half-ass so called 1,200 sf 'Flagship" boutique in the overrated City Center complex.

This supposed 'tiny' Downtown still serves as the shopping hub of the region. Again, D.C. hasn't been this for decades and it isn't coming back. That ship sailed for Tysons years ago.

You can't find a historic Downtown Flagship Nordstrom all over the U.S., and certainly not in Downtown D.C.

You can always go to the tired old Macy's though, so all is not lost.

Every DC poster said Seattle has a good downtown. You're the one who said downtown DC has no flagship stores, yet you were dead wrong. You're very misinformed which proves to be a occurrence time and time again.

So you hate when DC posters boost? Yet Atlanta posters probably boost the most on CD besides maybe those few weird Vegas posters. DC barley boost we just call out ignorance.

Again, reading comprehension is important. For the third time I said Flagship DEPARTMENT STORES, of which Downtown D.C. has none. Period.

You need to go back and re-read my post, yet again. I never used the word hate, but you sure seem to be throwing it around a lot. And you are now veering off topic, as this has nothing to do with Atlanta.

Ummmm....it is, would you like me to show you the stats for all the downtown DC neighborhoods and their retail capacity? You have Foggy Bottom, DuPont Circle, Golden Triangle, Logan Circle, Penn Quarter, Mt. Vernon Triangle, Northwest One, NOMA, Union Market, The Wharf, SW Eco District, Capital Riverfront, and. Buzzard Point.

You really don't have a clue about DC do you?
