A haven for artists and small businesses alike, Brookland is home to many unique and creative stores and restaurants. CUA's Hartke Theater hosts the Washington Summer Opera series each year. The annual Farmer's Market at 10th and Michigan returns Brookland to its 19th century roots each Sunday. The Franciscan Monastery at 14th and Quincey offers a cool and quiet respite from the stresses of daily life with its many garden paths. Brookland is a quarter hour drive into the downtown areas. It is only three Metro stops to Union Station and six to Metro Center. The newly created Metropolitan Branch Bicycle Trail, however, may be the quickest way downtown. Brookland is on the cutting edge of 21st century development with modern shopping areas being created to blend with the old.
