DC does not just mean Bowser. It means the community, and I particularly mean the downtown landlord community. I actually agree with Bowser that the feds should give up the spaces. But thinking forcing feds (and private sector office workers too) back into working from the office is the magical answer to downtown’s structural problems is short-sighted and won’t work.

I don’t understand why this is a problematic statement. The developer made promises about how they were going to invest and grow the development to draw more people to the area and in fact the reverse happened. (Mostly due to COVID, but I’ve noticed in lots of Douglas Development areas they seem to have just pulled the rug out and are letting them sink down to crap for some sort of re-build later instead of investing in keeping them vibrant.)

The St Regis - it’s a great place for a drink and has live piano or other music lots of nights. And the Ritz in Georgetown because of the huge wood fireplace that makes it smell like a homey post card
