During the storm last week, I noticed water pouring in through the ceiling of my apartment and notified my building. The leak was due to major water accumulation in an amenity space on the roof maintained by the building. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Feeling like a total bozo reaching out with a missed connection but hell after 12 years in DC here we are 🤷♀️. I was walking my dog on the trail near Peirce Mill yesterday (Wednesday) around 4pm when a guy stopped straight in the middle of his run to ask if my pup was a TWC (Treeing Walker hound — yes, he is!). We chatted for a few about his brother’s dog and then he seemed to realize he had been in the middle of something (you know, running shirtless and gorgeous through Rock Creek). Don’t wanna be a weirdo if he was just being nice (which is lovely!) but thought I’d put the vibe out just in case.”

“Dear PoPville,
I’m writing to see if the community has noticed what I have recently about the Petworth Safeway, specifically the parking lot. The last few times I’ve shopped, the parking garage under the store has been completely full. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
You were at a costume wedding reception (so many unread emails). we chatted and danced, you were leaving, I froze (that may be my costume this year) not my best look. perhaps you would give me the opportunity to undo?”

“Dear PoPville,
Since Covid, all package deliveries are left in the lobby of our building, located in the 500 block of M St, SE. However, this morning I was surprised to see an actual pile of packages – eight in total.
As I looked through them for any for our company, I realized NONE were for our address. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Can we please discuss the terrible intersection design at Georgia Ave and Park Rd NW? The signage and signals make it so unclear what drivers should do and I witness daily road rage incidents because of it.
Are drivers supposed to come to a complete stop after turning onto Georgia Ave since they are immediately presented with a red light and you typically aren’t allowed to turn left across traffic on a red? Some drivers come to an immediate stop once they turn right onto Georgia Ave, which angers drivers behind them, and I’ve seen some of those angry drivers speed around the stopped cars (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
Is it me, or do there seem to be more abandoned shopping carts all around the city? I keep finding empty/abandoned carts all over NE and NW. But especially in the vicinity of the Giant at City Market (though I keep finding their carts ten blocks away). Some recent pictures of carts randomly scattered around the city.” (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
was wondering best options for rental cars that won’t break the bank? Seems like enterprise/national rental cars are north of $2k even with corporate discounts, but was wondering if the community has other options of what we can do?”

“Dear PoPville,
I bought this painting of a group of rowhouses at Miss Pixies about 17 years ago — back when the store was in Adams Morgan. Since then, I have wondered off and on about what street it shows. I assume it’s a DC street, (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I hobbled to the Capitals v. Calgary game on Saturday October 23rd with my buddy from out of town. We sat down in Section 202, Row C; I noticed you sitting in the row in front of us. (more…)
