Washingtonian is one of the few remaining general-interest city magazines in the United States. The magazine explores every aspect of life in the nation’s capital—from influential personalities and neighbourhood trends to restaurants, culture, housing, health, and community issues. Editors are looking for stories that explain how Washington works or help readers better understand and enjoy living in the city. Successful pitches usually revolve around people, conflict, surprising discoveries, compelling narratives, or unique reporting.
