Pennsylvania Ave and Chinatown has their own unique style of street lights.
The overwhelming majority of EotR (Anacostia, Congress Heights, Fort Dupont, etc.) has telephone poles, while the rest of DC has the classic gray Cobraheads. Some places up NE/NW like Takoma and Chevy Chase have a lot of telephone poles too.
Revitalized streets tend to use the "new" black Teardrop poles.
Washington Globes can be found generally anywhere, especially in commercial areas and historic neighborhoods.
