Thanks to a reader for passing on from ANC 1C’s Wilson Reynolds:

“An update on the agenda for the Wednesday, September 6 meeting of our ANC. There has been discussion inside the ANC on bringing forward to the community a proposal to close 18th St. (and by that I mean the 2300/2400 blocks) to transit traffic on weekend nights.

The creation of a ‘pedestrian mall’ on weekend nights is not new. Veterans of the 18th St. reconstruction project in 2012 will remember well this idea being brought forth. And also will remember the opposition expressed by so many in the community of being forced to deal with the displacement of all that traffic on to the side streets of our neighborhood. Believe me, as a resident of the 2300 block of Champlain St, I get it, I have seen the lines of cars, heard the horns, seen it for myself. (more…)

“Dear PoPville,

This Adams Morgan Girl living in the shadow of Pence’s daily helicopter flights, having grown tired of looking to the sky with disdain, has taken her voice to the mountaintop of rowhouse roofdom. I call all like-minded Washingtonians to join suit in spreading the message from one rooftop to the next, all across our fine Swamp.”
