I'm with NativeSon on that one. Fort Circle Drive would have been, at the very least, interesting. The East/West parts of the city aren't knit together all that well...

Also, with regards to the (thanfully unbuilt) T St freeway, consider that the Souteast Freeway is fairly comparable to that, particularly in how it severed Barracks Row from the Navy Yard.

We've done a decent job of mitigating the effects to the north, but the areas south of the freeway never recovered or developed. If the goal was to segregate the city, the SE freeway and South Capitol Street did a marvelous job of that. Sigh.
