Barnes & Noble Returns to Georgetown

Thirteen years after leaving Georgetown, Barnes & Noble has returned to its previous location at 3040 M St NW. The three-story bookstore opened its doors this week, with 30,000 square feet of books, magazines, stationery, toys, gifts, movies, music, and a café. According to CEO James Daunt, “The Georgetown Barnes & Noble is the most ambitious of all the new bookstores we, or anyone else, has opened in over 15 years. The return to this historic building is a dramatic example of the ongoing revival of brick-and-mortar bookstores.” Stop by to do some good old-fashioned perusing through the aisles, and check out the in-store author book talks and events happening each week.
