“Dear PoPville,
Check out a new effort by neighbors in Columbia Heights to support local businesses that have been impacted by the federal takeover. Every Tuesday for the remainder of September and October, we’re celebrating #HeightsNight and asking folks to shop and eat local to support their community businesses. (more…)

“I work outside around the city, and it’s been inspiring to see more and more homes fly the D.C. flag, and/or yard signs for Statehood, Free D.C., or the anti-tyranny stuff that Flags for Good makes.
I was stopped in my tracks by the 1700 block of Bay St SE. Nearly every house was flying the D.C. flag. The weather last night was great, the sunset was gorgeous on Hill East, and the show of defiant pride was moving.“
I will be sad when whoever takes over this site in 50 years posts a physical book as an Archeological Finds… God forbid.
Thanks to Wendy for sending from “the LoC Madison building – a pay phone!
It’s not a Christmas tree, but still unusual.”
If you have a photo of a neat “archeological find” from your house, place of work or neighborhood please send an email to [email protected] thanks. Please let me know where/what neighborhood you found it in too. Thanks.

Highlands Tavern coming to the left and MOGA Doner House coming to the right – The Mr. Chen’s space should be next… What do you think would work well there? What would you love to see there?
Stay tuned all around.

Thanks to Arin for sending: “Safa halal seems to be open now in old souvlaki space on 18th”
Hmm, google is saying an October opening: (more…)
This was taped to the license plate, front and back, of a car on U Street, NW.
Any chance that would work? Seems, uh, unlikely it would.
From a press release:
“On Sunday, September 28 from 12–4pm, Marv’s Dogs will pop up at Problem Child with an afternoon of Chicago-style hot dogs just steps from Nationals Park. Guests will get a taste of Marv’s Dogs ahead of the brand’s brick-and-mortar opening in Tenleytown (4936 Wisconsin Ave NW) later this fall.
The timing couldn’t be better: (more…)
