[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Half the city looked bombed out. The difference between then and today is amazing.[/quote] I remember the giant hole that eventually became DC USA.[/quote] Yep, and the Tivoli building went unused for decades. And the incredibly bad Giant at 14th and Meridian that was replaced by the incredibly bad new Giant. Strangely, I felt safer living in Columbia Heights then than I do now.[/quote] I lived around there in the mid-1990s and then again in the mid-2000s. I would say that the mid-90s were pretty scary. Like, every day was a new adventure in "what crime may happen today to me or in very close proximity to me?" Mid-2000s was amazing. When I visit the area these days (still have friends there), there's more of a concern about crime than mid-2000s, but it is definitely not like the 1990s.[/quote]
