DC photo redux
 
I am in the mood to post some pictures. Haven't done so in a long time. I do have some fresh pictures from a Nashville trip earlier this summer that are just about ready to go, but I haven't uploaded yet. So here's a repost of some photos from past years.

Adams Morgan




Dumbarton Oaks garden




Dupont Circle








Georgetown








Downtown






Logan Circle










Domes on Connecticut Ave


Admiral Farragut


The Supreme Court




Rowhouses in Mount Pleasant






Metro trains at the Brentwood railyard


Acela train leaving Union Station for points north


Cherry blossoms








Choppy on the Tidal Basin that day


Shaw














That'll do for now, I guess. Just remember, when it comes time to vote...

Very nice photos, and I did not get the last one. Rather, what was the purpose of it?

By coincidence, two very good friends of mine own the red one. There are only a few blocks of Baltimore-style rows in DC. It's very nice inside.

Nice pics, thanks for sharing them with us.

Fantastic shots!

Tim, the last photo was taken at a protest the day of Bush's second term inauguration parade.

Thundertubs, that is quite the coincidence. And you're right - very few of that style rowhouse in DC.

D.C. is one of my U.S. favorites, good post!

God, I love DC.

yum yum yum
omega thread.

What's the story on the Adams Morgan murals? (which I love) Anymore photos of AM or Shaw?


Is that a Black Civil War soldier monument?

I always like the pics with pedestrians in them. Attractive views of DC..makes me want to visit.

Your photos (and your city) rock.

i miss my old city! i love the cherry blossom pics the most. if you ever get any of the new national's stadium and adjacent area, please post them. i hope the revitalization of that area really picks up even with the bad economy. they have been talking about fixing up that area for 10 years!

Cirrus Jan 27, 2009 10:08 PM

Whoa. Gravedig.

I do have some photos of the stadium, but never posted them. They're a good 9 months old. If I can find them, I'll dig them out.

To answer Kingofthehill's month-old questions:
That is THE African American Civil War Memorial.
Here are more pictures of Shaw / U Street, and here are more pictures of Adams Morgan. Murals are just a thing in Adams Morgan. There are a ton of them (those are the two most famous).

Awesome. I want a tour this summer.

Ask ColDay for reference. lol

volguus zildrohar Jan 27, 2009 10:20 PM

I gotta get down there.

Cirrus Jan 27, 2009 10:25 PM

Come down, send me a message. We'll figure it out.
