Gallery moves and new spaces

As it has been documented in many real estate studies, the renovation cycle of a run down neighborhood usually starts with art galleries and restaurants, desperately seeking affordable space to exhibit and cook.

It happened in Old Town Alexandria decades ago, in downtown Annapolis, around the 16th street area in DC, etc.

And now, anchored first by Conner Contemporary, it's happening around H Street, NE in DC. Soon Industry Gallery, a contemporary design exhibition space, will open above Conner, and also soon G Fine Art will relocate permanently to the same block (at 1350 Florida Ave, NE).

Party's already been planned by the folks from Ten Miles Square and the Pink Line Project. More on that later...
