Overview: North East 2400 block 18th Street Northwest

Motorcycles occupy several parking spaces in front of Madams Organ, Asylum and The District. It's more than a parking lot; it's a party lot.

Boom boxes run amok in the parking spaces in front of the Marie Reed Learning Center.

This is 18th Street at one-thirty AM Sunday morning. There is so much movement in the street and on the sidewalks that it would be difficult for any armed force to say they have it completely under control. MPD likes to call it "controlled chaos". It's more like mildly contained chaos.

And if that didn't bore you enough, here's the same places on a different night.
