[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wonder how many of you actually live in DC.  We live in the U Street/Logan area and it's basically like there never was a pandemic.  If you need to move to Frederick because of housing prices and "social unrest," well, good luck to you.  You'll be replaced soon enough by the more prosperous.

Oh, a couple days ago a realtor knocked on my door and literally begged me to sell my townhouse.  If DC is dying, you sure can't tell from the real estate prices.

So many suburbanites seem to get off on DC's impending demise.  It's ain't gonna happen.[/quote]
I believe you that your neighborhood is doing great. People who used to go into offices and spend money downtown are now spending their money closer to home. When is the last time you went downtown?[/quote]

+1.  Funny that PP even brings up her hot neighborhood and the market value of her home.  It’s obvious she is in deep and unable to see the forest from the trees.  Downtown is suffering and it will spread.  Clients aren’t coming back to office for a long time.  Conference and tourists?  Same story.  There is a world of hurt coming.  [/quote]

I'm a he, not a she, and I'm a long term thinker.  It may take a longer time than some may have anticipated, but as long as DC remains the capital of the US it's not going to just dry up and blow away.

It's very clear that many of the naysayers don't live in the city.  You live in the suburbs.[/quote]
