Back in June 2023 Brookland also had a Black Bear visitor.

Thanks to Emily for passing on James’ great shot – and of course thanks to James for giving us permission to post: “Last seen running into Fort Bunker Hill Park.”

Thanks to Pablo for sending. AlertDC reports:

“WMATA reports the Brookland Metro Station is closed due to police activity. Trains are temporarily bypassing Brookland-CUA. Shuttle buses are being provided.”

From WMATA: “Red Line: Trains continue to bypass Brookland-CAU due to police activity at the station. Metro Bus H8, operates between Rhode Island Ave and Brookland-CUA. Metro Bus 80 operates between Brookland-CAU to Fort Totten.” (more…)


Holy smokes. When it rains it pours and today it is pouring pure joy. I don’t have timing on this one but I’m also hearing that that prayers of Brookland have finally been answered and a Trader Joe’s is coming. I don’t know where. Maybe here? I don’t know when but I do know that my Trader Joe’s scuttlebutt accuracy is pretty damned good…

STAY TUNED.

If you missed Part One earlier, you can see it here.
