    TNCR is drawing lines in the sand regarding fast food and gas stations.

    Education is extremely important.

                        Of course it is. Black Broadway, man. Clubs were home to Louis Armstrong, Miles Davis, Duke Ellington... So of course it's filled with 60-year-old white guys and hipsters of all ages. Travel two blocks over towards Howard, though... They installed 1000 new CCTV Cameras around the University area due to all of the recent shootings and murders.

                        I've not been to H Street. That sounds like a challenge.

                          U street. Near the Howard University as well as all of the restaurants and clubs in the area. The Howard Theater is nearby.

                            No, this is the place that Bill Cosby made famous...

                            It was a staple in the 50's and 60's and was located smack dab in the middle of these great jazz clubs back in the day that featured the truly greats... And after the shows, you could stop by Ben's and you'd find Miles Davis getting a freaking half-smoke or Louis Armstrong. Great stuff! It became a city landmark. Cosby fell in love with the place while serving in the Navy and stationed in Maryland. He would eat there all the time. When Cosby hit it big, he started having press conferences there. I believe that's where he announced the show for NBC. The place is absolutely full of pictures of the whose who that comes there. Cosby ised to take center stage, though. A lot of bare spots on the wall...

                                It’s a city landmark for sure. On most tourist bus mapped stops. Obama visited! I’ve never been, but would like to try one day.
