I'm personally tempted to argue that given the planning theories in common at that time, I suspect that the engineers decided to eschew Georgetown to save time for the suburban commuters who were expected to be the bread and butter of WMATA Metrorail ridership, and the potential engineering difficulties as noted by others may have reinforced that decision. I suspect that the planners presumed that buses would suffice, and if somebody really wanted to ride Metrorail, they'd transfer for a bus at Foggy Bottom... |
