From an email:

“You heard about it in the past. You started training over a year ago. You may have even taken the ride along H just to get to know the competition, learn where it speeds up and where you might have the advantage.

The third annual “Running of the Streetcar” is here!

Think you’re faster than the streetcar? We bet you are, but come find out for sure on Sunday February 10th. Just think of the famed Running of the Bulls at Pamplona, except for this event your goal is to outpace a big, red mechanical beast — H Street’s infamous streetcar! (more…)

From MPD around 8pm:

“Earlier tonight officers responded to a call for sounds of gunshots in the area of the 600 block of Orleans PL NE. Units canvassed the area and learned that a round had passed through a window of a residence in the 1100 block of 6th St NE. No injuries were reported. Anyone with any information regarding this offense are urged to contact MPD at 202-727-9099 or via text at 50411.”



500 H Street, NE

Thanks to Lance for sending the update: “Sign is up for Red Boat on H St.” Back in July we first reported that The Red Boat, Vietnamese Fusion, was coming to the former Micho’s space at 5th and H St, NE. There were some construction delays (aka stop work orders) and folks weren’t sure if they were still coming – but looks like they worked those issues out. Check out their menus here and stay tuned for an opening date.
