They could improve the cost of metro though. It upsets me a little bit that I have to pay more during rush hr and that there are like 5 different fares based on distance.
​
Just give us a flat fare like NYC does. or at least a low fare for local rides and a slightly higher one if you cross state lines or go to IAD.

Does this apply to breweries? Or only for places that sell spirits? I feel I've been to breweries/wineries in VA that dont sell food or just have food trucks that dont seem to be affiliated to the establishment.

I love cycling around the city. We have amazing trails and many places are reachable using only bikelanes. Still dream of the day they make them all protected. Maybe even raise some to sidewalk level. 15th street would be an amazing place to start.

I used to live in Tysons Corner. Most of my friends live in DC so I would drive to the city pretty frequently.
Metro from tysons would double my travel time on the weekends so I preferred to drive. I would frequently give a ride to a couple friends some times. Their houses were on my way to the places we frequent and I liked to chat with them. Since I moved to DC I dont use my car unless I am leaving the city limits so they lost their ride privileges haha.
Parking in DC is either difficult or expensive but luckily, everything is less than 30 min by bike. Also public transit is good but some areas of the city require transfers that really affect travel time.

I LOVE those 2-3 weeks of early spring and 2-3 weeks of mid/late autumn. The weather is perfect to be outside and the city looks beautiful.
