For our first stop in Washington, DC we have a Walgreens located in the city's Chinatown district. Make sure to stay tuned, as we'll have many more stores from the area throughout the coming weeks!

Now, this is something that doesn't happen every day. This Walgreens used to be a CVS. CVS closed on October 23, 2007 in favor of the store at 400 Massachusetts Ave. On February 21, 2013, Walgreens opened its seventh flagship store in the former CVS. 

Some unique features of Walgreens #15360 would be the Mandarin and Chinese characters on the facade, translating to the word "pharmacy". Another would be the fact that this store is three levels, totaling over 21,000 square feet.
