VIDEO: DC neighborhoods in 1976 vs now

There's not a whole lot of specific info that I can find on this video... but it's still fascinating to see. It puts you into a car in 1976 on a quick drive around DC, I believe near U Street? Then we hop in a car in the year 2020... but not at the time when no one was in the streets.

In 1976, things look rundown, there is a lot of trash, plants are overgrown. In 2020, people are walking around in groups, houses are repainted and rebuilt, but there are still signs of the same 1976 look in some parts.

We all know the city has been trying to rebuilt for years/decades, and gentrification is strong... which makes it even more interesting to have this look back.
