More on the DC that almost was

Given the post earlier this week about Washington’s unbuilt highways, I thought it would be interesting to republish this discussion of mid-century urban renewal from the Adams Morgan Heritage Trail Booklet. The booklet is available free to download from Cultural Tourism DC, and is similar to the historic marker on the sidewalk in Adams Morgan.
