In addition to conventional
retail business, Columbia Heights' new high-density residential developments
will generate a significant level of demand for basic neighborhood support
services: dry cleaners, hair salons, optometrists, dental care, shoe repair,
florists, tailoring, video rental, entertainment venues, cafés,
and niche specialties such as yoga and fitness facilities. |
|
| |
|
|
| |
These emerging enterprises,
re energizing the area west toward 16th and east toward the once-flourishing
11th street business corridor, will entrain an unprecedented need for
the deployment of individuals with customer service skills. Neighborhood
Jobs Initiative is actively developing a new curriculum to prepare Columbia
Heights residents for these new opportunities. |
