“Dear PoPville,
How many emergency no parking signs do you need to cover a full block?
Example: On the 900 block of 1st St SE, there are two emergency no parking signs at the north end of the block (denoted with an “S” in the attached image) that claim they reserve all the spaces on the entire block. I was towed today from the other end of the block (the spot denoted with a C in the attached) for allegedly violating those signs. It seems nuts that a sign 150-200 feet away from my car could properly serve as notice that I can’t park there – but I don’t know what the actual threshold is.
Bonus Q: After I discovered my car was gone, I called 311 and went through the process to see if the city knew where I’d been towed to. They had no record of me being towed, (more…)

Thanks to PB for sending from Navy Yard. And, I too have questions. Nothing is not normal in coronaville.
If you spot a pig being taken for a walk on a leash, please send an email to [email protected] or message us on social media @PoPville.
Thanks to Jason for sending: “Looks like a new CVS is going into the One Hill South apartment building on the corner of Half St & I (eye) St, SE. Which is a bit surprising since there’s a CVS about a half mile away at New Jersey and M St, SE. I wonder if that one is slated to close shop. It’ll be right next to the new Medstar doctors office, so pretty convenient for picking up prescriptions.”
Thanks to a reader for sending around 7pm yesterday.
