Answer a few questions about what makes Petworth unique
/Curbed DC, the website that named Petworth the Best Neighborhood of DC for 2015, contacted me for an interview about Petworth. Since the goal of this blog is to connect neighbors and promote a sense of community, I thought I'd ask YOU to answer some of the questions so it's Petworth that's answering, not just this blog. I'll try to include your answers in the Curbed DC article!
