Greater Foggy Bottom around the entry to the Whtiehurst Freeway and then at the circle by GW Hospital. Georgetown, under the Whitehurst Freeway going into Rock Creek Park too.

Shaw / Mount Vernon triangle. Right by the apple store there, there is a tent city and open air drug market. It’s almost as if the folks who run this city just do not care.

An open-air drug market? In this economy? But seriously, MPD doesnt allow open-air drug markets these days. Get. A. Grip.

Still many tents under the under passes off First Street. They have been there for a decade plus though...nothing new. They cleared some under passes in recent years but that just shifted things around.

Is there an organization that is helping them in terms of toiletries and winter clothing? Are there any children in those encampments and do they have access to a school, school supplies clothing etc.?

I have never seen any children. It is majority men, on lots of drugs.

Huh, that's weird. I thought the collective liberal DCUM hivemind determined that sweeping homeless encampments would solve the issues. Sounds like it was just an exercise in cruelty.

Every circle has them pretty much, Dupont, Thomas Circle has tons, and areas around DT. The entire city except some deeply residential parts.
