I didn't take this picture, I found it on flickr. And I'm not sure what part of the city this is, but this could really be anywhere and everywhere:
I wanted to post a picture of what I will think of in my mind and miss when I don't live in DC anymore --- the view of rowhouse turrets. It's what I see so often when I look up, and it always makes me happy. It was one of the first things I noticed about the city, and I wanted really badly to live in a green rowhouse in a room with a high ceiling and a turret on the top. I have never even been in one like that...who the hell lives on the top floor of a rowhouse...lawyers maybe? Well, whatever. I lived in a beautiful treehouse apartment in the burbs, and now I live in the bottom part of a blue rowhouse. But turrets are basically what differentiates DC from other places in my mind. Otherwise this could be Detroit. Oh...and the abundance lawyers. That too.
