There were Main Street programs on N. Capitol Street and 12th Street (Brookland), predating H. Thomas Jr. While a "Great Streets" program maybe wasn't funded for Rhode Island Ave., a plan was done. It's hard to blame councilmembers for whether or not certain things are funded. While programs are needed for Bladensburg and New York Ave., I'm not sure a "Great Streets" program is the best vehicle to spur revitalization in those places, which have very particular circumstances making revitalization difficult.

And clearly, he must not understand transportation if he's hot for a Circulator service in the Ward, which would be underused, and a sink on city finances.

Anyway, I mention this only for the inaccuracy. I still take great joy in H. Thomas going down.
