Posted June 23, 200915 yr I finally am getting around to posting my Washington D.C. photos. I took these shots over the memorial day weekend. This is the first of three posts These buildings are on the Edge of Georgetown closest to Washington Circle: Now for the real Georgetown. Here's the main drag M Street: Its almost impossible to limit the amount of pictures I took. There were just spectacular buildings everywhere I looked! Here's a little pedestrian mall... Aww the canal. I loved this... This is a really cool reuse. The community is like a separate entity from the rest of the neighborhood.. Here are some shots right along the Potomac River.. Here's the way to do a parking lot... Georgian Style Downtown Arlington.. Watergate... You know a neighborhood is thriving when it has an urban mall like this.. Now for the residential! As I went further east and closer to Adams Morgan the houses began to get massive. I can't even imagine how much these cost. I just missed seeing this place. It closed at 5 This marks the beginning of Adams Morgan...

June 25, 200915 yr A bit of transit trivia about the street with the streetcar tracks and center slot; while it may look like a cable-car track configuration, it isn't. Overhead wires, including streetcar catenary, were prohibited in Washington, D.C. Streetcars picked up power through a special shoe that went through the center slot to a wire or bar that ran beneath the street.

That would explain the slit in the middle of the track
