[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know that this is probably going to anger some people, but I don't understand the draw to living in Capitol Hill. Yes, the homes are historic. Yes, there are many beautiful renovations, but apart from that, it has to be one of the most DEAD areas of DC. You walk around and it's like no one lives there. It's a ghost town on weekends and holidays. Yes, Eastern Market can get fairly lively, but the area as a whole doesn't have the feeling of a living, breathing, neighborhood.

Am I missing something? Can someone enlighten me? [/quote]Some of us like the residential quality of the neighborhood which is also accessible to good restaurants and fun places and downtown.  You sound like you're more of a Columbia Heights, 14th St kind of person.  That's cool.  It takes all types.[/quote]

I live in Cap. Hill and as much I like visiting the restaurants on 14th Street, it's way too congested for my taste. I like that our block is quiet - we do see folks walking to/from the park, the school, Eastern Market, but we're not fighting for parking spaces (as much), or dealing with too many interlopers.
