[quote=Anonymous]I live in Shepherd Park a few blocks from Walter Reed and love the neighborhood.

Walter Reed has now reached the point of build-out where it feels like there's really a [i]there [/i]there. When I went exploring the other day, the bits around Whole Foods felt like they had proper streetscapes and I love that the bits around the historic buildings a little farther south have so much leafy green space. It feels like a college campus down there. It's at the point where I thought, yeah, I would actually seriously consider living in one of the condo buildings on the campus if I were downsizing, rather than just saying, as I have for the last decade, "I love Shepherd Park and Walter Reed will be great to have nearby when it's finished"—which I still believe.

Georgia: Changing rapidly. I'm still waiting to see the improvements from the Fern or so up to the District line that would make that strip a neighborhood attraction rather than a patchwork of good-tired-iffy. I hope (pretty optimistically, still) that the huge amount of new residential at WR will support better shops and restaurants along Georgia north of the campus.[/quote]
