[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I live in a coop building in NWDC and I'm ... familiar with the challenges (and don't mind them).

The thing that I can't get over about the Watergate is that it's not particularly walkable. One of the trade-offs for some of those challenges is that I can walk to a dozen easy amenities within 2-5 minutes, including numerous transit options. The Watergate is cut off by that huge traffic circle and not integrated into a walkable neighborhood.[/quote]

yup - this was a HUGE turnoff for me.  You have to cross a multi-lane road to go anywhere![/quote]

Plus, have you seen the huge homeless encampment next to the Watergate???  Why would you want to pay so much to live somewhere with that nearby?[/quote]

That did not use to be there.  Conditions have changed on the ground at the Kennedy Center so ...However planes fly we never minded the noise when outside at the Kennedy Center on any level.

Pre pandemic we considered downsizing-move south-place local at Watergate.  Views and Kennedy Center [shows, activities, expansive outdoor space, convenient on the border of DC to airport].
