Congress Heights
First off 🕊
This is Congress Heights — or more so a fraction of what really is, kinda hard to encapsulate this world in ten photos. But, I tried. Truth is, ik this area a lot more than I’d like to admit. One of the reasons I matured earlier than I wanted. One of the reasons I developed a thick skin. One of the reasons nothing shocks my core anymore. just desensitized. Why would it when you’ve seen it all. Or at least thought you have.
Many “first” was in or around congress heights. im talkn everything .. nah fr .. my first shawty stayed off lebaum, first lil summer job was at dawn to dusk, cashed my first check 💵 at the Ace Express, had my first fight ona a6. I wasn’t even from round there but somehow that congress heights vibe always caught up wit me 😂
The neighborhood’s Bounded by 295 to tha west, 1-5 (15thNCongress) to tha east and oxon run on the south/sw — the green line train runs thru this side but im letting you know now columbia & congress might both have 8 letters but that’s about all they got in common so don’t slip 💯 Tha hoods home to simon elementary, hart middle, and Big Bad Ballou High School 🗣[ voice] then the tennis center on mississippi might produce the next Serena 👀
Just like anywhere else in the city, they have their fair share of problems. ard it’s way more than a fair share but s**t, don’t act like yall don’t know tha real real. Ion need to type it out iykyk. But Seriously tho, can ya chill w the slidin??
