[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived there 20 years ago, and remember a naked guy running up and down the street outside Buffalo Billards.  I had little nephews visiting me and they were thrilled with the excitement of the naked runner.   And there were always a ton of pan handlers by the Cathedral on RI.

I didn't even realize people were raising families there now, honestly.  Where is there a playground?  Columbia Heights/Adams Morgan seems so much more family friendly.[/quote]

Kalorama Park (playground). TBH I think of Dupont and Adams Morgan as the same thing, and then Columbia Heights is its own little scene. I've lived in DC forever (from here) and they all have nice aspects/are seedy in their own ways. I agree the itinerant homeless camp outs in DC are out of control. I didn't realize there were also drugged out people lying in the road. The city should pass news laws allowing for institutionalization and treatment and/or a bus ticket home if they were drawn here from elsewhere. Last, people should stop giving money directly to panhandlers. If you want to donate to a charity, they will be grateful to use your money thoughtfully.[/quote]
