Who’s taking wedding photos at the Columbia Heights fountain?

I feel like they meant Meridian Hill and missed- badly.

The dream is the fountain actually working again at some point.

I am wondering if there are any pop-ups or things relating to the movie at the locations on the map? Let me know if you see anything. I thought it might be an interactive advertising thing (like hiding the iron throne for game of thrones).

I dont think the show has anything to do with DC; this is just trying to connect your 'dreams' with the show.

Anywho it isn't perfect, but I get where they are going. I mean, very few apartments in Georgetown have parking, you can't get to the cathedral on metro, you can't buy a Wesley Heights home for under $3M, etc.

Inexplicably, the caption about finding a Members Only jacket is spot-on. There's a vintage clothing shop in that exact spot that would absolutely carry that kind of jacket.

The rest seems off, but whoever designed this either got very lucky or knows Adams Morgan, lol

I'm guessing they have versions of this for other major cities? If so that's actually kind of a cute idea, a map of the "dream version" of each city, with some local inside jokes.

Would also explain why this one isn't particularly well executed: if there are multiple versions in different cities they probably got churned out by a marketing company that isn't even headquartered here.

There's definitely no metro station at that spot on Cathedral. What is this?? (Beyond an ad)

Georgetown metro station is also a dream

But why would people dream of a metro station there? I could see it more so in Georgetown (as mentioned) or up by the AU campus. But at Cathedral and Idaho? There are condos there that actually have parking spaces.

Just cause there are parking spots doesn’t mean people don’t want good transit. Not everyone wants to drive everywhere.

Most of these feel like incredibly generic random placements

Loving the responses arguing with the premise of this being fake

“A real metro station” at Embassy Row? Did they mean to put this at Georgetown instead?
