[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A vote for Conn. Ave. corridor in upper NW--easy to do without a car, and there are many zip car locations when a car is needed.  It has a feel of NYC lifestyle, with its walkability and easy mass-transit access. There are a lot of kids in the Conn. Ave apartments. Quite a few international kids at Hearst/Murch/Deal whose parents are mid-level embassy staff who might be in DC for a 2-4 year rotation, at NIH, Carnegie Institute, int'l agencies for fellowships.

No, it doesn't feel at all like New York.  It's really sad when people in the District try to convince themselves and others otherwise.  It feels like Upper Caucasia, which is a nice place, but it is what it is.  Own it.[/quote]

Yes, I agree.  Personally, I prefer DC to NYC.  I don't like the congestion, awful smells and dirty sidewalks with trash piled up.  I understand there are WAY more people in NYC, but[b] I prefer DC as it has the city feeling without the smell  :D[/b] , so don't compare, appreciate the differences.[/quote]

Now [u]that's[/u] what I'm talking about.  You don't know how good DC smells, until you get on the train at Grand Central and come out in Union Station.  :)  You appreciate it immediately.[/quote]

Have you been in a carpeted metronome train especially when it has been raining [/quote]
