“Dear PoPville,
Today (Tuesday) was trash day at my house. About 10 minutes after it was picked up I went to grab my bin. To my surprise it was gone. Looked up and down the alley, nothing. Now my bin was in rough shape but I thought it was fine for a while longer. No one would steal my damaged bin. Many better options around my alley. (more…)
“PoPville, I’m curious if anyone recognizes this wall. The picture is of my grandmother around 1945 when she lived in DC.” (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Here’s one for you…wondering if this has happened to anyone else. I went to vote in-person at one of the early voting centers. I’ve been registered to vote for years, voted in-person in the primary, and received a mail-in ballot for the general. I handed the election official my drivers license, and there was no record of me in the system. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I moved to the Adams Morgan / Columbia Heights area in DC last year. Generally, we are pretty happy to be in DC, but one of my family members has a strong fear of dogs after having been bitten twice. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
It’s That Time of the Year, so:
I’m looking for a café or small market that’s offering a rich, thick, delicious pumpkin pie with a soft, fluffy crust.
Any recommendations?”
“Dear Popville,
Since the start of the pandemic, the zoo has required tickets for access. While restricting access aligned with scientific recommendations when less was known about outdoor transmission of COVID and when transmission in the area was high, that is no longer the case. As a primarily outdoor venue, there is no reason to set capacity limits or require walk in visitors to seek a pass. Furthermore, zoo staff report that the current capacity limits the zoo has set for itself are never reached. Given current CDC guidelines and community transmission, there is no basis for continuing to restrict access to this public resource. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
There is a storefront beside the Navy Memorial named Fooda. I think it is run by José Andrés. It is open on Tuesday and Wednesday from 1130 to 2. Each day is a different food vendor with all different types of cuisine. It is a joy. (more…)
