“Dear PoPville,
Looks like some activity at the former 7-11 at 7th and Rhode Island. Any idea what’s going on?”

“Dear PoPville,
Was curious if your or the readers had any idea what happened to Ordinary People Barbershop–a great spot that was on 7th St. until recently.

“Dear PoPville,
I’m a huge fan of pickleball but hate going out to Arlington for decent courts — friends have sent photos of people playing on the 18th street tennis courts at night (photo above). Do you have any idea of who this group is/if they’re part of a league anyone could join?”

“Random DC thought: Caribbean restaurant Bammy’s in Yards Park (301 Water Street, SE) is one of most under-appreciated (& unknown?) spots in the city. Coming from the former Maydan chefs, it’s worth the trek”
