“Dear PoPville,
I live across the street from the Signal House office building over in Union Market. The majority of the annoyingly loud, early morning construction seems finished, but now the lights in the offices (the fluorescent blinding lights) are on literally 24/7. (more…)

Any advice on how I’d find out where this new little feature on the lamppost outside my apartment might have come from? It’s not marked MPD or anything!”
