[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A native can take a shortcut through the Park without getting lost or looking at a map[/quote] I’ve lived in Arlington and Silver Spring and worked in NW DC for 20+ years, and I can do this. I even know all the Beach Drive access points in upper NW. I also get all the Cool Disco Dan etc. references from the other PP’s post, and it will never be anything but National Airport to me. I still can’t remember to call the Verizon Center “Capital One Arena,” and I’ve been known to occasionally forget and refer to it as the MCI Center, which *really* confuses my teenager. I even remember zoned cab fares. When walking three blocks to hail a cab, then having them drop you two blocks from your destination, could save you the price of a drink.[/quote]
