“Dear PoPville,
I’d like to thank the incredibly kind lady who screeched to a halt as she was driving through the intersection of New Hampshire and Gallatin NW on Thursday evening (July 28) at 10:45pm to encourage me to get into her car as we both heard several loud pop sounds that we think were gunshots. (more…)

“IMM Thai Georgia lasted a year. This is a hard location for a sit down restaurant. I think a Wawa or 7eleven would last. What do you think?”

A reader reported yesterday:
“I’m not sure about victim. Was a bit after 1pm. Saw a couple guys in cuffs down on Ingraham, near Jefferson Liquor.”
Another reader reported from 1st and Q Street, NW around 1pm Monday:
“Open house in Truxton Circle – don’t mind the shell casings”
“I heard it and saw people scatter. 7-8 shots.”
Another reader reported:
“I heard 10-15 shots Monday around 1pm, and someone on Nextdoor posted the news that there was also gunfire last night or early this morning in the same area around Q and 1st NW (she talked to cops, and neither incident was fireworks).”
Right?

“Have you seen these awesome new barriers on Kennedy Street (in front of and across from the CVS)? They’re finally finishing up the rainwater/watershed project and it’s looking great.”

Back in December we shared some mouth watering Scuttlebutt that the folks from Bloomingdale’s Showtime Bar, across the street from Boundary Stone on Rhode Island Ave., had plans to open up a second spot in Brightwood Park on Georgia Ave (photo above.) [Showtime opened in Bloomingdale back in 2013 and is perennially placed on all the ‘best of’ lists around town.] A week ago I reported that Neptune Room was coming to 5405 Georgia Avenue, NW and because the liquor license placard listed the prolific Andrew Kline as attorney, I suspected this might be the rumored Showtime spot. And now a local food blog confirms it is indeed the Showtime folks: “Team Showtime confirmed”.
