In this installment of UrbanTurf Reader Asks, a DC resident who is considering moving to Capitol Gateway near the Capitol Heights Metro station (map) asks what readers know about the surrounding area.
I may be moving to the Capitol Gateway development, and I am interested in knowing if anyone has experiences (negative or positive) to share with me about the surrounding area (commuter traffic, general quality of life). Thanks.
