Actually the tents there are a LOT like it was 20+ years ago

Actually no. In 2003 there weren’t filthy tents on every triangle park and overpass and traffic circle and underpass in the godd6m city[/quote]

Exactly.  Have lived in the city, downtown, for close to 30 years.  While there has been an intermittment encampment presence at Whitehurst Freeway/Rock Creek Pkwy at VA Ave, the phenomena of large tents parked in the triangular parks and on wide sidewalks like 17th Street and Dupont Circle only started during Covid, when the City decided to tolerate it.  There is no reason that the City should allow people to encamp in these spaces.  There are ample shelter beds.  [/quote]

Shelter beds? Are you serious? What are people supposed to do during the day? And where are they supposed to keep their personal belongings? [b]Do you want them to decamp to libraries? [/b]Because I’m pretty sure you would be outraged if the city sought to build multi-unit short term housing on your block. [/quote]
