“Please join the DC Office of Planning and the District Department of Transportation on September 26, 6:30-8:30 pm at the McKinley Technology Educational Campus Auditorium, for an open house and presentation of the draft recommendations for the Mid City East planning area. The draft recommendations to be presented, are informed by extensive research, analysis and community feedback that has taken place over the past few months. We look forward to your continued participation and hope to see you there!

Location: McKinley Technology Educational Campus Auditorium at 151 T Street, NE

The Mid City East communities of Bates-Hanover, Bloomingdale, Eckington, (portions of) Edgewood, LeDroit Park, Sursum Corda, and Truxton Circle lie almost exactly one mile north of the U.S. Capitol. These architecturally interesting and culturally vibrant urban neighborhoods are rich with community, but wrestling with concerns – heavy traffic volumes, aging sewer systems, and increasing needs for diverse, affordable and convenient housing, retail and transportation options. The Mid City East Initiative will strive to improve mobility, enhance commercial corridors, promote safety, preserve historic resources, green infrastructure, and cultivate development opportunities.”

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
