Traffic Circle
The actual traffic circle is not much of a traffic circle at all. Pennsylvania Avenue crosses over the circle, and includes ramps to the Southeast Freeway (I-695. A service-like road traverses the northern half of the circle, intersecting 17th Street SE, Kentucky Avenue SE, Pennsylvania Avenue SE, K Street SE, and the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail.

Famous quotes containing the words traffic and/or circle:
“Poems stirred
into paper coffee-cups, eaten
with petals on rye in the
sun—the cold shadows in back,
and the traffic grinding the
borders of spring ...”
—Denise Levertov (b. 1923)
“Everything here below beneath the sun is subject to continual change; and perhaps there is nothing which can be called more inconstant than opinion, which turns round in an everlasting circle like the wheel of fortune. He who reaps praise today is overwhelmed with biting censure tomorrow; today we trample under foot the man who tomorrow will be raised far above us.”
—E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
