The Columbia Heritage Trail unveiling was a great success and managed to beat the rain on Saturday afternoon. The turnout was spectacular. Kojo Nnamdi from WAMU (88.5) was the emcee and there were speeches by Ward 3 Council Member Mary Cheh and Ward 1 Council Member Jim Graham (among others).

Kojo Nnamdi once caught a fish…

The festivities took place at the new Columbia Heights Plaza and the actual unveiling took place just south on 14th St. in front of The Heights restaurant:
