Life goes on.
What's wild is how the "hip" part of town has moved around over the years. Nowadays, the coolest part of town in terms of restaurants, bar and music for younger folks is around Shaw (the area around 14th and U) which was a hookers and heroin war zone back in the day. The area around the Navy Yard is also pretty popular. That area was worse than a war zone. And Georgetown is fairly calm and no longer the destination for every teenager and college kid looking to party on weekends.
