The Project for Public Spaces has named D.C.’s Adams Morgan Neighborhood a “great public space.” The neighborhood is seen here in a photograph taken by Cris Martin. The groups’s neighborhood description, apparently lifted verbatim from the Beyond DC website, raves it is “hip but not yuppified, diverse but not preachy, safe but still gritty, cool but not uppity, and fun but not taken over by Starbucks and Disney. Adams Morgan is, for many, the toast of the DC urban experience.” While DCist does enjoy Adams Morgan, a cursory exploration in September revealed plenty of gentrification of note.
