The concept of the The District seems like it'd be a great one...Street-like setting with shopping on either side of the walkway and apartments above.   The stores that attract me there are REI, Anthropologie, WS and Pottery Barn....oh wait, and Lucille's BBQ.  Other than that, nothing really else to see.  \n\nThe street/walkway is really short.  You could walk from one end to the other in less than 10 minutes.  I guess the shops are suppose to attract you in so you end up strolling down, but other than the ones listed, there's not much else.  Maybe if there was a live band in the evening , cafes or outdoor vendors or something, it'd be a better hang out spot.
