Honestly the most impactful part of my trip to DC as a kid was getting to take the metro everywhere. It was my first time using public transit and, from a tourist perspective at least, it’s actually good. Also the brutalist architecture is amazing.
I’ve had to work in some of those buildings, not great. The neoclassical buildings are a lot more people friendly. Some of those brutalist buildings have no interior windows, just endless back-rooms style halls and cube farms.

Brutalism is cool to visit but shitty to live in.
DC Metro is one of the best subway systems in the US. It actually goes to suburbs too which is really awesome.
Ugh, the brutalist tunnels brought my depression from a 10 to 100
