11. There's a secret park named for an American hero

Bloomingdale
We asked three dudes on the street how to find this so-called "secret park", so you don’t have to. Head to the intersection of 1st and V St, NW and walk towards N Capitol St, then turn right into the first alley. Steps later, a Crispus Attucks park will pop up, tucked behind rowhouses. The urban oasis is named after a former slave who was the first person to lose his life in the Boston Massacre at the start of the American Revolution. Pack a picnic and hide for a bit.
