Phil Esocoff and Matt Bell, Architects, on the history of Connecticut Avenue
Dips, Bends, and Straightaways: The Planned and Unplanned of Connecticut Avenue
Ever wonder why Connecticut Ave is the way it is, as in mostly straight, but with a few notable exceptions? Join us for a discussion of why one of the city’s most well-known avenues is not like the rest, perhaps better for it, but all the same unique in every way, from its history to how we live on it today.
Phil Esocoff has practiced architecture, planning, and urban design in Washington, DC, for over 45 years.
