Shaw is a North Central neighborhood just east of Dupont Circle and south of Adams Morgan, but with a history and culture rooted firmly to the D.C.'s African-American history that could not be mistaken for those other neighborhoods. In recent years it has rapidly become one of the most diverse sections of the city, with everyone moving in for the live jazz, bars, and high-end nightclubs on U St and 14th, and for the marvelous food, including the amazing Little Ethiopia strip.
