“Dear PoPville,
Our street, the 1600 block of Underwood St. NW, hasn’t been plowed a single time since the storm a week ago. In the last day alone my teenage son has helped at least three cars stuck in the street spinning their wheels on the ice. We have elderly and disabled residents restricted to their homes, unable to get to the grocery store or doctors office. We haven’t had mail delivery either the entire week.
We have called 311 repeatedly. The 1600 blocks of Van Buren and Tuckerman are equally messy and dangerous. Photo attached! (Don’t be distracted by the lovely sunset over the park…)”

“Dear PoPville,
I’m so sad to hear about the news of Basebowl’s closing. It will always hold a special place in my heart — it unexpectedly became part of a fun ‘tradition’ with a new person in my life!
I met this guy in the summer of ‘24 out in the wild (in DC, meaning an ABA networking event that I crashed with a friend). We saw each other a few more times in a chaotic kind of way, but our friendship / budding romance rekindled in the spring of ‘25 with the start of baseball season.
We first stumbled upon Basebowl (more…)
Well that was fast.
A tipster tells me what’s coming to the recently closed Basebowl space in Navy Yard near Nats Park (1201 Half Street, SE):
“Scolapasta (currently in Tysons and Arlington) is taking over. They will keep serving fresh pasta in a fast casual setting.” (more…)
