    We don\'t drive the SUVs, don\'t have the boats, don\'t gorge our kids with fast food, and don\'t pour French wine in the gutter. What we do is grasp at every sliver of chance that we may soon be able to walk to Whole Foods every couple of days to get quality food and beverages. Save us from Safeway!!!

    We live in Mount Pleasant and have three children in school in Columbia Heights. We wish we could walk to get our groceries and would shop almost exclusively at Whole Foods if it were in our neighborhood.

    Whole Foods is desperately needed in the Colombia Heights/Mt Pleasant area. Many residents, like myself, would be happy to walk to do our grocery shopping. The P street location cannot handle the volume...please recognize the opportunity this presents and open a Whole Foods store in our community.

    We shop at all the Whole Foods in the area but would switch almost exclusively to a store in Columbia Heights because it would be in our neighborhood. The Dupont Circle store is always jammed and is obviously a hit. I\'m certain it is a no-brainer to bring another store to the dense urban setting that is Columbia Heights where pent up demand is high for a quality grocery store.

    Please put a Whole Foods in the DC USA retail space. The neighborhood can definitely support it. The Giant is not good and the traffic at the P St. WF store is getting pretty bad. It would be so much easier and convenient to shop at the DC USA space. Please come to Columbia Heights! Thank you.

    I live 4 blocks from DCUSA, and would love to have a Whole Foods within walking distance. The Tivoli Giant is so crowded and understocked- you\'d be coming into a hungry market.

    Parking is NOT an issue, please come!!!!!!

    I\'ve lived in the neighborhoof for fifteen years and itwould be great to have good grocery shopping move in!
    Karen Miller ReeseSigned on: Mon 13 Feb 2006 12:47:33 PM CST
    I think this is an absolutely excellent idea. I fully support a Whole Foods in Columbia Heights!
    Ivan WuSigned on: Sat 11 Feb 2006 11:32:21 PM CST
    A Whole Foods in Columbia Heights would be great! I am within walking distance and wouldn\'t need any parking space whatsoever!
    Katie TorokSigned on: Thu 09 Feb 2006 02:13:24 PM CST
    Opening this Whole Foods would be a win-win situation for everyone. Build it and we will come!
    Michelle ErinSigned on: Mon 06 Feb 2006 09:46:50 AM CST
    Come on over! We (and a whole lot of people to our north) would love to see a Whole Foods on this side of town. We\'ll be coming by bike, foot and metro, so no need to worry about the parking!

    REady for Whole Foods!
    Jenna AllisonSigned on: Tue 31 Jan 2006 09:34:50 PM CST
    Would love to see another Whole Foods close by!
    G A BakerSigned on: Mon 30 Jan 2006 11:52:47 AM CST
    We live one stop away from the proposed site (U Street/Cardozo) and would love to be able to take a quick hop on Metro to buy fresh produce, etc.  
     
    The P Street store is always congested and is not convenient to Metro, and our immediate area lacks a grocery store.  
     
    If another high-end grocery store moves into the DC USA site, Whole Foods will certainly lose market share, as a community the size of a small city is being built in Columbia Heights.  
     
    However, if Whole Foods chooses to occupy DC USA, it will be in the cat bird seat.
    Ana BarcelonaSigned on: Mon 30 Jan 2006 11:47:30 AM CST
    Whole Foods would be so welcome in Columbia Heights!! It would be so nice not having to go to the terribly crowded P. Street location anymore. 
     
    Sincerely, 
    Ana Barcelona

    It would be great to have a Whole Foods within walking distance.

    I am very hopeful that Whole Foods will reconsider locating in Columbia Heights. As a resident who walks and uses Metro transit, parking is not an issue for me (and many of the local residents). Giant is not as good of an answer as Whole Foods for the many health conscious young professionals who have recently located in this area. Thanks!

    I am very much in support of Whole Foods coming to Columbia Heights.
    David DickersonSigned on: Fri 27 Jan 2006 12:12:18 PM CST
    As a resident of Columbia Heights, I would very much welcome Whole Foods to the community. I do not believe that parking would pose a great concern, as many of the residence that would frequent this center would walk and with a metro station within yards of the facility other consumers could easily shop at the complex using public transportation. I believe that it is brands such as this that will continue to transfor the neighbor hood and attract more new home buyers.
