Get the Street Sweepersmug. The area near Adams Morgan where you drink pabst, eat eritrean, hear jazz, go to Black Cat or DC9, and try not to step on rats.
U Street D.C. is best likened to city haunts in Philly, Pittsburgh, or Sacramento -- i.e. not really that hip, but maybe a good a thing because it's very hot so no one really wants to wear pants so tight.

Get the Street Fighter Blistersmug. Known as Greenwood Avenue.
Greenwood Avenue was populated by successful African American families, businesses, hospitals and churches. All this would change on May 31. A young black man was accused of attempting to rape a white woman in a Tulsa elevator. Later, a rumor flew through the community that a lynch party was forming. Several young black men formed a defense party. At the courthouse they encountered a group of white men. Strong words (and some say bullets) were let loose. A pitched gun battle began right there on the spot. Soon, the white rioters forgot about their immediate targets and concentrated on looting and burning Greenwood Avenue. The mayor had to call in the National Guard from Oklahoma City to end the violence. In the aftermath, dozens of people, black and white, were dead. The exact body count is still unknown. Greenwood Avenue was completely gone; burned to the ground. Fortunately, many residents refused to be scared away by the riots, and rebuilt the neighborhood. The scars from the ordeal, however, haunt many African American residents of Tulsa to this day.
