Collectively known as “Downtown Ward 7,” several recent and substantial mixed-use developments surround the intersection of Minnesota Avenue and Benning Road. Although the neighborhood serves as the headquarters for major employers such as Pepco, DC’s Department of Employment Services, and DC’s Department of General Services, substantial public and private investment in new development is generating exciting opportunities for small businesses to grow.
