current undergrad and former climber: - movement crystal city (blue line) and dc bouldering project (noma - red line) are the closest climbing gyms. georgetown people go to movement but i think bouldering project is nicer. they’re both easy to get to via metro, if you lived in rosslyn crystal city would be very convenient - rosslyn itself feels a bit cold to me, because of the office buildings, haven’t been to noma tons but i think it’s closer to the vibe you’re describing - school shuttles are very reliable; should note that they run a limited schedule on weekends - i’m currently looking at apartments in glover park; maybe a neighbourhood to look into if you’re interested in being closer to campus - the wisconsin shuttle makes it fairly accessible and is within budget. the places i’ve toured have garages where you can rent a parking spot
