“Dear PoPville,
It’s not massively exciting, but it’s puzzling me:
Can anyone explain the random old school loud speaker on the front of this Capitol Hill row house? Doesn’t look like part of an official emergency alert system and I’ve not seen similar elsewhere. Is it just an odd home burglary thing, or a way to yell at the neighbor kids?”
Ed. Note: Isn’t this part of the old school fire alarms?
