Reply to comment by FSOTFitzgerald in Opinion: It’s time for federal employees to return to the office by 22304_selling
Lol that's not right. Some people will still want to live in cities. The issue is cities aren't working hard enough to encourage people to choose to come live there.
Why are cities like London, Paris, NYC appealing places to live? Because those cities have diverse economies that have any kind of thinks you want. DC could be a small version of those large cities, it has cultural attractions, the zoo, nature nearby. The city has a pretty good food scene as well. There are areas yet to be improved and good leaders look for ways to improve

DC government has failed the citizens by relying on the federal government to support the economy. If this was any other city this argument would be laughed at and rejected. It is not the job of federal employees to keep the DC economy going. DC gov should realise and accept telework as the new reality

I enjoy the architecture. The older buildings are just pretty to me

At the least they could be users to make a similar monument to the capital columns in the arboretum

What I'd like to know is why the city hasn't asked the Fed's for the ability to get and usee the stones for a monument, or why the NPS hasn't used them

Reply to The Exceptionally American Problem of Rising Roadway Deaths (includes a focus on pedestrian and cyclist deaths in DC) by woulditkillyoutolift
It's only a problem because Americans refuse to invest in rail and bus in cities. I don't pity people who whine about high gas prices because such people have no forethought for times when prices are high and elect people who aren't interested in public transportation. Neither should you
