I left there in 1968. I have wonderful, fond memories of Bicycling from 20th and O street down to the Capitol. I must have been crazy. DC Transit every five minutes, (before the Subway was built), Lincoln, Jefferson Memorials, and Washington Monument, Smithsonian, Carter Barron Amphitheater, Union Station, Smithsonian Institute, The White House, The Pentagon (MY Job), Arlington Cemetery, Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. What a City, even now recalling some scary moments, it is one of my Favorite places in the Country to visit. I lived where Gary Condit's Jewish Girlfriend lived, it was a new Building at the time with a Pool on the Roof. At night I could watch Planes coming into National Airport appear to fly by the National Cathedral.

I love the subway there you seldom need a car...bikes were very popular as well lots of places to use them....I know exactly what you mean bout watching planes land at night at National...it is an awesome sight I still only fly into that airport I love the view when you land upriver...I know the building you are referring to...I enjoyed all the sights the entire time I was there...it's a great great city including all that you mentioned
