Lest anyone think that DC is too conservative to make it on video for anything other than politics, Michelle Obama's fashion sense, or the President's jaunts to various burger joints in town, think again.
Columbia Heights, the neighborhood that might be "a bastion of New Urbanism," has made it on YouTube, New Columbia Heights reports.
In a video that could be entitled, Ending "Killer Sprawl", CH clocks in at 2:12 -- and stays up for nearly 10 whole seconds -- during the almost three-minute video.
Of course, the up-and-coming neighborhood has made the news before. Like when Pete's Apizza made The Washingtonian's Top 100 restaurants list earlier this year, or when IHOP was rumored to be making a spot for itself there. So we're not too surprised that someone else is taking notice.
