New Mt. Pleasant Marketing Signs

Thanks to a reader for sending in these shots from a Mt. Pleasant St, NW bus shelter. It looks like it is from a District marketing program. I’ve been curious about this marketing program – I know I’ve seen some for H St, NE as well – do you think it’s a good use of district funds? Do you think they are effective?

And while we’re on the topic of signs – I know that there has been some controversy about placing some “Mid City” signs in the U St, NW area. What are your thoughts about these banners and banner marketing in general?

For the record, I’m a huge supporter of neighborhood banners.

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.
