“Overhead Baseball Lights at Harrison Park (1300 block V St NW) on 24/7”
UPDATE: “after many calls from my neighbors it seems DPR sent out a maintenance crew and has finally turned off these lights.”

“Dear PoPville,
I, like many of my DC friends, came from the South. The decision to leave was a conscious one, but there are things I miss about it… like line dancing. Or just country music in general. My question is, are there any good country/western dance bars in the DMV? (more…)
