5. Digital Archives: Exterior of the Edgewood Neighborhood

April 24, 2017 Matthew Matos Archives, Images, S Street Rising

The poster for the Edgewood Commons neighborhood I thought that this poster of the Edgewood Terrace Apartments was interesting. It makes for an external view that is inviting to the area and to live in the apartments. The simple slogan gives an outsider a warm, welcoming feeling in other words. It makes the neighborhood appeal to […]

The Edgewood neighborhood is located in the Northeast Part of DC, and accounts for the location of the culture surrounding it. Politically speaking, Northeast DC is an area that is undergoing much social and political change, as this area is has a lot of the political hubbub occurring in it. It is an area that hosts a […]

The image below features some of the town houses in the Edgewood neighborhood This is an image of the surrounding townhouses from the Edgewood neighborhood. These houses are for the most part connected, and go outside the main Terrace Apartment building. Thus, one can see how easy it is to get from one area of […]

This is the first picture I took of the Edgewood Terrace Apartments. It shows an external view looking into the apartments of what is inside. My initial impression told me that it was this one building, but I actually found out that the Edgewood Apartments are composed of 6 different apartment buildings. Also, when approaching […]

These two pictures are playground equipment that I saw in the apartments. Neither was being used, but placing playground equipment in urban environments is a very common thing. It is done to promote activity in youth and to give them something to do in their neighborhood to ultimately, stay off the streets. As a result, […]

This was the first thing I really took notice to when I first walked onto the Edgewood Terrace Property. I sat down on this bench to take written notes as to what I saw and everything, and wrote about the bench. Typically, benches that have these bars on them are done in an effort to […]

This sign was on Edgewood Street as I was walking to go to the actual apartments. In all honesty, this sign made me laugh. It made me understand that I was in the right area to study how this area in DC was known at one time as Little Beirut. At the height of the […]

The Barriers

This picture illustrates a very real problem in Shaw. On one hand, Shaw seems to be improving. It seems to be developing, and along with the new developments, Shaw seems to be a place where there is newfound opportunity. That’s at least what most developers and newer residents would like us to think. But, like […]

Leaving Home and Going Nowhere

April 17, 2017June 2, 2020 Rabia Muhammad Archives, Artifacts & Signage, Digital Archives, Exhibits, Images

I don’t know what else to say about this photograph other than the fact that it’s intense. The photo puts an actual person behind what seems like abstract ideas I can only talk about by reading about them. This photograph begins to connect everything I want to eventually bring to light. Although I haven’t taken […]

Patriotism in Shaw

April 16, 2017June 2, 2020 Rabia Muhammad Archives, Artifacts & Signage, Digital Archives, Exhibits, Images

According to this website, this mural not only has general American history embedded into it, but family history as well. The mural is painted in front of a store called “Good Ole Reliable Liquors,” and it’s owner, Mike Toor, supports troops because he has family in service. To him, this piece means so much more […]
