WAMU’s Metro Connection Feature Highlights Area Communities
It was recently brought to my attention that WAMU’s Friday program, Metro Connection, includes a feature that quickly introduces listeners to area neighborhoods. This is done through a segment called Door to Door which condenses the introduction into about a minute and a half. The communities highlighted on February 18th were Adams Morgan and Bladensburg, Md.
According to WAMU’s Web site, “Metro Connection reaches across Washington, D.C., Maryland, and northern Virginia to gather the sounds and stories that capture the current events, culture, and personalities driving the Washington region.” You can read a fuller description of the program here.
Among the neighborhoods you can experience by navigating the map above are Columbia Heights and Adams Morgan. Park View will be included in the near future.
