The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) announced the next quarterly update meeting for the H Street/Benning Road Streetcar line is planned for Thursday, April 12.

At this meeting, DDOT will provide an update on the status of the 2.5 mile streetcar line that is scheduled to be fully operational along the H Street/Benning Road corridor in summer 2013. The update will include information about the design-build contract and details on the historic and cultural resources evaluation along the corridor.

DDOT will also be presenting and soliciting public input on the conceptual site plans under consideration for the Car Barn and Training Center (CBTC). The CBTC will be located at the eastern end of the streetcar corridor on the northwest corner of 26th Street NE and Benning Road NE. The conceptual plans to connect the streetcar to Union Station at the western end will also be presented.

Ward 5, 6 and 7 residents, as well as other interested stakeholders, are encouraged to attend this meeting to hear about the latest updates on the H Street/Benning Rd streetcar line, provide input and ask questions.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
