[quote=Anonymous]Our 1915 rowhouse had good bones but certainly had not aged like fine wine. It had deteriorated and needed substantial upgrades. We made those upgrades because we thought at the time we'd stay in the city, but that was before we decided we didn't want to raise our kids in an area with so many drug dealers, alcoholics and rats. You can look past those things for so long, but eventually it doesn't feel right anymore. I feel like the upgrades that we made to the house were a parting gift to DC, but its subsequent three owners do not appear to have lifted a finger to improve what we left behind, and I notice when I drive by the old neighborhood that it's started to deteriorate again.
