[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many of you lived in DC during the 70's and 80's? Places like Shaw, NOMA and U Street were persona non grata.[/quote] Even around 2000, Shaw and NOMA were still pretty bad. Those were the "slum historique" days in Shaw. [img]https://live.staticflickr.com/26/124525722_74030fbaed.jpg[/img] U Street was just starting to be revitalized. That's how crazy long the legacy of the '60s, especially the rioting, kept central DC neighborhoods depressed. We've already seen that movie... why on earth have we forgotten just how crazy bad things were and why would anyone want to repeat this destructive cycle.[/quote]
