Not true.

I used to go shopping with my mother and grandmother in downtown DC when I was a child and it was far from a shithole.
They used to force me to go and I hated it. 
But looking back on it now it was interesting. Exciting. Fun.
The exact opposite of right now.[/quote]

Thats the problem...people who move here have no clue about the history of DC...its beyond annoying. They think they are "saving" the city. Yes 14th street looks "better" than it did a decade ago but my goodness how about some uniqueness. City Center should be called "City Bland". All that prime space wasted on what exactly?[/quote]

Gentrifiers are full of shit.
They think they know more about DC than people who have lived in DC for generations.
GTFO here.

"Saving" the city?????

Starbucks?
Whole Foods?
Potbelly?
Panera?
Cupcakes?
Dog parks?
Bike lanes?
Yoga?

LOL

BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
