“Dear PoPville,
Since I am not getting a lot of help from local authorities, a friend suggested contacting you. Have you had any complaints or comments about a certain restaurant on 17th street dumping their waste in/on local residents garbage cans or parking spots? This takes place in the alley between Corcoran and R streets and 17th and New Hampshire. I’ve had to dispose of about 30 bags of their trash. I also followed a restaurant worker, after dumping on a neighbor, back to the restaurant on the east side of 17th on the ally. Can neighbors be aware and contact DC police or the ANC if they spot this happening? I am not sure if that is the only restaurant but it is illegal and adding to the increase in the rat population. I have filed a police report but have not heard anything yet so I thought I’d try all my options.”
“Dear PoPville,
Just heard last night that Maddy’s on Connecticut Ave. will be closing on February 15th. Apparently being purchased by the same guys that own Mad Hatter.”
Whoa, anyone else hear this? Maddy’s opened up here back in 2009. (more…)
Ed. Note: This is above the coming Astoria restaurant from the folks behind H Street’s awesome Copycat Co. Updates as that gets closer to opening too.

“Dear PoPville,
At 11 AM today, my husband was running past S Street Dog Park in Dupont and was bitten on the arm by a dog (Doberman mix?) that was leaving the dog park. The owner walked away with his dog. When a bystander caught up with him, the owner said he was going to drop off his dog and then come back.
My husband waited around for about 5 minutes and then went to a nearby clinic to get his wound treated. We’re just trying to figure out if the dog has all the necessary shots, so we’d like help IDing this person and the dog. We only want to make sure that we know what kinds of vaccinations and shots the dog has for my husband’s health.
Any tips on this can call 202-579-3243.”
Veg heads rejoice!! Fruitive opened in Dupont yesterday – standby for that Hip City Veg nearby.
