My God In Heaven, Sanity Prevails!! (for now): “The Service Lane is Dead, Long Live Cleveland Park Promenade”


3300 block of Connecticut Ave, NW

My dear friends, this is your hour. This is not victory of a party or of any class. It’s a victory of the great Cleveland Park neighborhood as a whole. We were the first, in this ancient neighborhood, to draw the “sword” against poor urban planning. After a while we were left all alone against the most tremendous NIMBY power that has been seen. We were mostly alone for over ten years. I say that in the long years to come not only will the people of this neighborhood but of the world, wherever the bird of freedom chirps in human hearts, look back to what we’ve done and they will say “do not despair, do not yield to terrible urban planning.”

You asked, what was our aim? We answered in one word: Victory. It is victory, victory at all costs, victory in spite of all ridiculous signage, however long and hard the road proved to be; for without victory, there is no vibrant neighborhood.

Thanks to ANC Commissioner Tammy Gordon, ANC3C06 for sending the great news Friday:

“I’m delighted to report that DDOT took the neighborhood recommendation to keep the Cleveland Park service lane closed to cars and open to pedestrians, restaurant patios and our farmers market pop ups.”

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.
