It’s happening! This is the long vacant Philly Cheesesteak & Gyro space. Stay tuned for an opening date here.

“Dear PoPville,
I’m reaching out because I have now received my third parking ticket from an officer for not abiding by the Residential Parking Permit sign for Zone 1. My issue is I do have a Zone 1 RPP clearly displayed on my windshield so I’m extremely confused as to why I am getting these tickets. I was curious if any other residents of Zone 1 or other zones are also experiencing this?”

From an email:
“El Tamarindo, Washington D.C.’s legendary Salvadoran and Mexican restaurant, marks National Pupusa Day Sunday, November 13th with an all-day celebration done in partnership with the D.C. Mayor’s Office on Latino Affairs.
We’ve partnered with Taqueria Xochi to offer Birria Pupusas that will only be available at El Tamarindo on National Pupusa Day.
El Tamarindo will donate 10% of proceeds (12PM-4PM) from National Pupusa Day to the Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid Network. The Migrant Solidarity Mutual Aid Network will distribute collected winter items to newly bused-in immigrant families and will use donated funds to purchase additional items to meet some of the families’ needs. Hope For Wellness will also be on site collecting new or gently used (clean, excellent condition) winter items of all sizes such as coats, gloves, scarves, sweaters, hats, sneakers, boots for these families. New, unopened toys are also welcomed!”

I got a number of reports about delays/lines in voting at Marie Reed in Adams Morgan:
“Wait times are Marie Reed in Adams Morgan are over an hour! Only 3 voting machines in use.”
“Marie Reed only has 3 electronic voting booths so the line is LONG.”
DC Board of Elections replied to us: “We are working to fix the situation at Marie Reed.”
Fortunately looks good everywhere else: (more…)
