I’ve witnessed the birth of entire neighborhoods: Shaw, 14th Street, The Atlas District, Navy Yard, Ivy City, The Wharf.
Um dude u must be really old because most of those neighborhoods date from the 18th century

to be fair though
this seems... pretty cool? i was expecting it to be all super privileged kids but there's also non-affluent students doing it bc it's cheaper than campus housing. assuming they really are sticking to their bubble this seems like a neat way to have a social college experience https://t.co/o8horNumk7— anna!!

regardless of the underlying story, presenting the schooling crisis with a headlining picture of a group of a dozen white kids having a hang session sitting on shag carpeting and divans in front of a picture window and a fireplace (with a HOPE sign on the mantelpiece!) is very NYT
