    I\'m a vegetarian and Whole Foods is such a hike up to Silver Spring or P Street. I love stopping in to grab a quick salad bar platter or a delicious pastry. I KNOW WF would boom in Columbia Heights, you just can\'t HELP but stop when you pass a WF.

    Columbia heights will go to $hit if you all don\'t get that space. The last thing we need is a Ross. Please dont let that happen.

    Please bring whole foods to this neighborhood. Its all we need to make it complete!

    I understand that Whole Foods is at an impasse with DC USA in opening a new Whole Foods location in the DC USA Retail Complex in the Columbia Heights neighborhood of Washington DC. I am writing to you today as Whole Foods customer and Mount Pleasant neighbor to urge you to continue negotiations with DC USA and come to an agreement which will benefit not just both companies but the overall Columbia Heights / Mount Pleasant neighborhood in helping to revitalize this area of DC as you helped with the revitalization of DuPont and Logan Circle neighborhoods’. 
     
    Whole Foods is a success in DuPont Circle. I can only image that it will be no different in Columbia Heights. As customer, I am not able to get to DuPont but once a month to shop there. Being located in Columbia Heights would enable me to shop frequently as I would prefer to shop at Whole Foods than Giant. 
     
    I understand that it was due to neighborhood activist in DuPont and Logan Circles that got the attention of Whole Foods to consider such a move to the P Street location. What can I do to help persuade Whole Foods to stake a claim and open a location in Columbia Heights?  
     
    This neighborhood is ready for you. Please don’t let us down.

    I think a Whole Foods would be a wonderful addition to the mall and the neighborhood.
    Eve FergusonSigned on: Wed 05 Mar 2008 09:48:54 CST
    Please bring Whole Foods so that we can have some variety, organic healthy food and the other wonderful things that Whole Foods provides. We like Giant, but we need a choice closer than the impending Harris Teeter store.

    There is already going to be a Marshalls and a Target there I think Ross will be overkill. I would prefer to have a supermarket. Whole Food would be a good choice. The other supermarkets around the area have a limited selection. Whole Food offers much more.

    I support a Whole Foods at DC USA. Please make it happen.
    Staton CarterSigned on: Wed 17 Oct 2007 22:05:47 CDT
    It would be wonderful to have whole foods at the dc retail complex. I like the store, and I am attempting to become one of their workers.

    You would have a loyal and numerous following at Whole Foods in Columbia Heights. Other recent businesses in the area have quickly thrived. Regarding the current negotiation impasse, please remember that when one side fails to negotiate, the other must step up, concede, and be the \"bigger\" party. Please be that \"bigger\" party for your own, and Columbia Heights residents\', good. I truly believe the payoff would be substantial.
    TurnerSigned on: Tue 02 Oct 2007 19:58:40 CDT
    Whole Foods would be a great addition to the neighborhood, and I would double or triple my shopping at Whole Foods if they locate to Columbia Heights.
    Heather ScottSigned on: Tue 25 Sep 2007 15:00:30 CDT
    I recently moved to the Columbia Heights area from the Kalorama area. The Giant grocery store has few organic and vegan options, so I often shop at the Whole Foods stores on P St. and on Wisconsin, and at the Trader Joes on 25th St. I was excited to hear that a Whole Foods would be coming to the area, but then I read that it might not happen because of parking negotiations. I typically take public transportation or my bike and am not concerned about parking for the new DC USA facility. 
    Please reconsider.
    NicoleSigned on: Fri 14 Sep 2007 15:16:11 CDT
    I currently have to drive to Silver Spring, MD or Tenley to shop at your stores. The P st. location has awful traffic and parking. I was really excited about the opportunity to walk to the Columbia Heights store. I hope Whole Foods really reconsiders there decision. Both you and the neighborhood can benefit with the new location.
    Damon DowningSigned on: Thu 13 Sep 2007 07:15:04 CDT
    Hello Ms. Riley,  
    It is regretable that Whole Foods will not be coming to Columbia Heights. I have found it increasingly difficult to navigate the parking lot at the P Street NW location and was looking forward to walking to the new Columbia Heights location. I would like to thank Wholefoods for consider this location and look forward to walking to other options that are scheduled to open in our area.  
     
    Sincerely,  
    Damon Downing, Resident 
    Columbia Heights

    We just moved to the area from Logan Circle and would love to continue to patron Whole Foods on a regular basis.
    Jess DSigned on: Sun 22 Jul 2007 11:14:35 CDT
    I am prospectively moving to the DC area and am interested in the Columbia Heights neighborhood as a place to settle down. I think that the addition of a Whole Foods would compliment the fabric of the community and fill alternative food shopping and employment needs for the city.
    Isabel ManaloSigned on: Fri 13 Jul 2007 13:26:45 CDT
    We shop at the P street location as well as in Tenley town all the time. We would be regulars at the Columbia Heights location if one were to open up. Thank you and hoping Whole Foods will respond to the call.
