Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
D.C. Streetcar makes its debut.
Crowds assembled along the H Street NE corridor on Saturday to witness the inauguration of the long-awaited streetcar line. But now that the ribbon has been cut and the transit gawkers have gone home, who’s going to ride the 2.2 mile service? With slower service than a parallel Metrobus route, will the smoother ride and temporarily free fare be enough to draw people to the new line on a daily basis? We talk with council member Charles Allen about the first rush hour on the H Street Streetcar.
