Gentrification in Washington, DC has been the subject of widespread attention after the most recent Census data revealed that the city's African American population would fall below 50 percent for the first time in over 50 years. This research---based on an analysis of 15 months of ethnographic field observations, in-depth interviews, and detailed transect walks---investigates the neighborhood terrain of those demographic changes and the socio-cultural processes of exclusion that prevent racial integration and inclusion in the gentrified context. In this research, I employ an intersectional reading of Henri Lefebvre's theory of the production of space to identify how white gentry residents' spatial practices produce a context in which African American residents---both those who have lived in the neighborhood for decades as well as those who have moved to the neighborhood as part of a gentry group---experience exclusion from public space. This exclusion operates in three arenas: 1) interracial interactions characterized by social friction in restaurants and at public meetings, 2) circumscribed memories of neighborhood history, identified through gentry spatial practice, and 3) the exclusion of black visitors to Bloomingdale through gentry residents' surveillance of black church-goers' parallel parking practices. I ultimately argue that space is a social structure that is mutually constituted with race, class, and gender. Residents' perceptions of race, class, and gender inform their spatial practices and produce sites of exclusion; and in turn, these spaces of exclusion reciprocally constitute new raced, classed, and gendered archetypes.
