The H Street Playhouse opened its doors in 2002 and became the cornerstone of what the mayor would soon call "the Cultural Arts District". Conveniently located near the intersection of Florida Avenue, Maryland Avenue, H Street, Bladensburg Road and Benning Road; this area has since become a thriving destination including restaurants, night clubs, coffee shops, art galleries, burlesque and even mini golf.
