Thumbnail gallery, taken on a Sunday about a month ago HERE (http://beyonddc.com/galleries/2006KStreet/). If you need a location reference, see THIS (http://beyonddc.com/nonweb/_maps/Kstreetphotosmap.jpg) map. Photos were generally taken either along the red line or down a cross street.

This is McPherson Square.

The spired building - One Franklin Square - is by a few feet the tallest commercial office building in Washington, and a local landmark.

K Street is a true boulevard, with express lanes and local lanes physically separated. There are plans to remove the local lanes and add a dedicated transitway down the middle.

Not usually how I would describe Burger King, but OK.

Looking up Connecticut Avenue from Farragut Square. The clump of trees down the street is Dupont Circle.

And one more...

Thomas Circle. Recently reconstructed from a much more auto-centric configuration. It still needs a lot of work, but this is an improvement, anyway.

The greatest capital of the greatest nation in the world...not really.

[fflint]

Nice pics. DC has great streetwalls.

[OhioGuy]

DC is such a great city. You're lucky to live in the area, Cirrus! Thanks for the photos. :)

[flar]

Washington looks amazing with all those rows of midrises.

[Evergrey]

amazing photos

[Cirrus]

Wow. Gravedig on exactly the one-year anniversary of the thread’s last post. Weird.

Anyway, hooray!

[OhioGuy]

Ha, I was so excited because I thought we were getting a new DC photo thread. But it was still nice to see this one again. :)

[denveraztec]

Sweet photos!

[salvius]

There's certainly something to be said for midrise construction. Great pics.

[Chelsea Spy]

Handsome mid-rise buildings on a grand tree lined boulevard - could almost be a European city! Good pictures... (be nice to see more Washington hoods actually...)

[VivaLFuego]

Never get tired of DC, one of my favorites.

[ColDayMan]

Nice!

[DetroitSky]

DC always reminds me of a European city. Thanks for the pics.

[Top Of The Park]

...kind of Paris like

[JivecitySTL]

DC makes me feel good.

[LSyd]

nice pics.

Ha, I was so excited because I thought we were getting a new DC photo thread. But it was still nice to see this one again. :)

i'll have one for you this weekend.

...kind of Paris like

Paris' plan, London's architecture, that about describes DC, with Atlanta's burbs :haha:

[Bergenser]

Good looking capitol, be proud of it. :)

I think that's the least European-looking part of DC.

I appreciate the thread and the pictures are good, but I find that area to be the most bland in all DC, except for the "urban renewal" victim called SW.

[PHX31]

AHHHHHH!! Ghost Cars!!!!! j/k.

Great shots of a very unique American City - the most European city in the US. I'm with Chelsea Spy... more 'hoods (on top of the ones you've already shown previously) would be great.

[Kingofthehill]

We need more DC on here.

[OfCourse]

loves it :tup:
