You may think DC is vibrant, but downtown DC is far from it. If you have been to europe you will that It is rather dead actually, sorry to be blunt. Where are the busy shopping streets? Very few. Where are the world class entertainment areas? The CBD is a bore, sorry to say, an office ghetto. It may be spread out, but that just means that the architecture is banal and conservative groundscrapers.

This discussion is getting a bit off topic for the transportation thread but I agree with this post. There are neighborhoods (U Street/14th Street, Dupont, Georgetown, H Street, Eastern Market/Barrack's Row) that are vibrant but much of downtown DC is dead a lot of the time.
