About: K Street (Washington, D.C.)

An Entity of Type: infrastructure, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

K Street is a major thoroughfare in the United States capital of Washington, D.C., known as a center for numerous lobbyists and advocacy groups. In political discourse, "K Street" has become a metonym for Washington's lobbying industry since many lobbying firms were traditionally located on the section in Northwest Washington which passes from Georgetown through a portion of Downtown D.C. Since the late 1980s, however, many of the largest lobbying firms have moved out; as of 2012, only one of the top-20 lobbying firms has a K Street address.

  • K Street est une des principales avenues de Washington, la capitale fédérale des États-Unis, connue comme le centre de nombreux think tanks, lobbyistes, et groupes de défense. Dans le discours politique américain, « K Street » est devenu une métonymie pour désigner l'activité du lobbying à Washington car beaucoup de sociétés de lobbying étaient traditionnellement situées dans la section du Northwest Washington qui allait de Georgetown jusqu'à une portion du centre-ville de Washington. Cependant depuis la fin des années 1980, plusieurs des plus grandes entreprises de lobbying ont déménagé et en 2012, une seule parmi les 20 plus importantes de ces entreprises était encore localisée à K Street.

  • K街（K Street）是美国首都华盛顿哥伦比亚特区的一条主要干道，东西走向，被称为众多智库、游说集团和倡导团体的中心。 在政治话语中，“K街”已成为华盛顿的游说行业的转喻。然而自1980年代后期，许多游说公司已经搬走；截至2012年排名前20位的游说公司只有一个还设在K街。 (zh)
