[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To me, prestige means history. So places like Kalorama and Chevy Chase which have been exclusive for generations would meet that criteria. Some places like Georgetown which was exclusive a generation ago have lost cachet. [/quote] But Chevy Chase’s “history” largely is one of deliberate segregation, so your personal notion of “prestige” is tinged with exclusion at least as much as exclusivity.[/quote] I am aware. Places like Belle Haven in Alexandria which I think of as a Chevy Chase knock off had restrictive covenants as well. That said people are still clamoring to live there. They carry cachet in the stratospheres of DC. I am sure parts of NW had restrictive covenants as well. [/quote]
