[quote=Anonymous]I rode the trolleys in DC on the last day they ran (50 years ago). I was only 3 and I don't actually remember the trolley ride, I remember having to take a taxi back home after the trolleys stopped running that last day. I remember when JFK was shot. When MLK,Jr was shot. I remember seeing the poor peoples march on Washington on TV and wondering why those people were standing in the fountain. I remember Montgomery Mall when there were just 2 big stores, Sears and Hechts, I think, before they built Woodies. I remember there were birds in the Avian Court at Tysons Corner. I remember Wheaton Plaza when it was not a mall, when it was a bunch of stores in a plaza. I remember the Potomac Community Center when it was actually an elementary school. (It was the open classroom design, which didn't work too well.) [/quote]
