“Dear PoPville,
I’ve gone to the Center for Advanced Orthopaedics, and my health insurance company needs more information from them to process a claim. However, neither my insurance company nor I have been able to get through to anyone at the medical office – we’ve left several voicemails on their line. They do not provide an email address of any sort. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
looks like a construction company is moving forward with a permit request to raze the laundromat on Mount Pleasant St. and replace it with a 4-story, 14-unit apartment building. I asked DCRA for the details and they sent me this: (more…)

Bike Parade on Mass Ave?? I live in Chinatown at the corner of Mass and 5th Ave NW and Wednesday night hundreds (thousands??) of people bikes paraded down Mass with music playing and lights and all kinds of excitement. Any idea what that was about?”

“Dear PoPville,
I was on a run in Rock Creek Park Tuesday and as I was enjoying the views of the creek and bright green spring leaves I spotted a bald eagle. It was awesome to see and was huge! I started to point it out to other people biking and jogging by on the trail and a little group formed. Fun to see everyone get excited to see it! There was one guy running by who I waved at to let him know and he stopped to check it out. (more…)

I want to post a missed connection that happened at dca (arrivals). He mentioned he lived in the dc area, so I know hes local not a tourist. It would be pretty awesome to connect to him. Highly unlikely but I’ll give it a shot. (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Anyone know why the lamp lights are flickering in both Washington Circle and Logan Circle at night? At least in Washington Circle, this has been going on mysteriously for years and I noticed the same in Logan Circle this weekend. Is it supposed to be a deterrent from people sleeping in the parks, an electrical issue, ghosts, or something else?”
“Dear PoPville,
I was in a minor car crash in Silver Spring over the rainy weekend while driving a friend’s car. One of the other parties is claiming a personal injury (one not apparent at the scene) and my friend’s insurance company is saying her policy does not cover any liability that I may have from the crash– (more…)
“Dear PoPville,
Wondering if anyone else has had experience with the parking garage under The Chase at Bryant Street, run by Bozutto (680 Rhode Island Ave NE, Washington, DC 20002)
I was there on a Sunday two weeks ago for about 45 minutes to visit a retail location (District Dogs, they are amazing) that hadn’t completely opened yet. The parking garage is run by “Premium Parking” uses a confusing third-party app you’ve got to separately download. At the same time, the parking garage has no gates and also signs saying “Retail Parking Free!” (no specified time limit). There was even a garage attendant who said they didn’t know if the system was up and working. So I parked, did my errand, and left.
A week later this “citation” with a City of New Orleans seal shows up at my door. (more…)
“Filling out toilet tanks with water so we can flush our toilets!!”
Lindsay reports: “Waking up on DAY 3 with no water at Allegro DC- 3460 14th St NW. 297 unit building can’t flush/bathe.”
Malik reports: “Going on 49 hours with no water. Everytime they are supposed to turn it back on, they find a new problem that adds to the delay” (more…)

Wondering if your readers know of any flower shops that make and sell flower leis in the area? Trying to find a few for an upcoming graduation without making them myself. Thank you in advance!”
