That stretch of 16th (and north) can really use some more vitality and cafes. Right now it's pretty desolate, compared to what it could and should be.

I would actually love if GGW did a feature on 16th St, particularly north of U Street/Meridian Hill. There are lots of institutional uses, which is fine, but they fence off their areas with huge, imposing black fences. While this may have been necessary because in the day, I think they should be encouraged to "tear down that wall" and lend themselves to *some* interactions with the street. After all, do the embassies and churches on Mass. Ave all have these unsightly and forboding fences?
