As someone who noth lives and works in DC, I take issue with the mayor pushing so hard to make sure people have to commute into the city to buy sandwiches. They need to focus more on making sure people want to live here even if they don’t have to be close to work, and then maybe some of the companies locating in nearby suburbs will choose to locate here as well. The quality of city services here are ridiculously terrible compared to other nearby areas it would seem- no focus on improving liveability and keeping existing residents here.

I don’t necessarily think the height limit is the only thing that makes downtown feel sleepy. There seems to be a lot of street level property that is closed off office space, windows for more office space, or other dead uses. We need more street level activity happening. Yes, there need to be people above to support it, but some of the properties create entire dead blocks in some areas.
