Look what I found emerging from 13th Street just on the south side of U Street NW: trolley tracks.
Yes, DC’s history shows itself in asphalt. The past, coming back to pop a tire one day soon. If you look in the north side of U Street, 13th shows trolley tracks too, but not so much.
I knew of the trolley that ended in Mt Pleasant and the tracks in Georgetown. Where else are tracks visible in the street?

There are exposed tracks by the ballpark. There used to be some in the Navy Yard area, but I haven’t been down there in years.
I’d love to see trolleys come back to DC and give us some other transit options for places that Metro isn’t going yet.
I would love it if the trolleys came back too! Although they’d probably be overrun with tourists during most of the day, it would be great to catch one to go to the bar or the baseball game…
My grandfather used to drive the DC trolley on the Georgetown line back in the 50s and 60s. My mom tells some really awesome stories of days she’d go with him to work and just ride the line around all day. It would be fun if that came back!

There are plans for a street car line in Anacostia
On the other side of the river, plans call for one on Columbia Pike
You all are waxing nostalgia about tracks – with a city full of lawyers and litigious judges, trolleys are the last thing this city needs esp during rush hour. If drivers aren’t patient enough to let Metro buses go before them, imagine how thrilled they will be to be behind a trolley. Also the tracks are not the best thing for those well-heeled ladies crossing the street, or anyone in flats for that matter.
