The Guide: The Wharf/District Square

Waterfront Tourist Destination



I made a pitstop in D.C. at The Wharf before heading to NYC to explore Hudson Yards for LBDSAW. The Wharf is less than 3 miles from Union Station, and I knew there would be tons to see along the mile or so stretch off the Potomac.


Although I didn't get to experience each of the spots on The Guide during this trip, I believe they are worth sharing in The Wharf/District Square story and would serve as a reminder for me to return & experience them all. Chek out the one I did get to explore: Tiki TNT (The Wharf)


The Category, Location and Images have been added for each below as a Quick Reference Guide for your trip to The Wharf. Be sure to share LBDSAW with your travel buddies (LBDSAW has a QR CODE >>), be safe in your travels and explore the site often for the newness!
