I like that a good chunk of the article was about service in DC. When I lived there I still ran in to the occasional Uber driver that would not want to take me to my home in Alexandria from the heart of downtown.
I'll also echo the author's comments that Uber opened up parts of DC that I would have otherwise avoided including Georgetown, Adams Morgan, and the Eastern end of H street / Northeast DC.
At the time Adams Morgan was getting more parking but I really didn't enjoy driving up there and getting a taxi was still spotty at certain times.
I don't live there any more so I don't know if the H street light rail is operational yet but I can say that I never would have frequented Dangerously Delicious Pies without Uber.
As a previous working Washingtonian I wish Uber the best and if nothing else am happy for the change they are driving. (Pun intended ;)
