“Dear PoPville,
Something strange happened in glover park over the weekend – animal sacrifice? It’s head is in the creek adjacent to the glover park entrance off Edmunds and some of its organs are in the park. I can’t imagine an animal beheaded a deer and threw it in the creek so….”

Yesterday we had the great pleasure of sharing a sighting inside the Columbia Heights Target. A few folks messaged me and we’ve learned that the chicken’s name is ‘Pollo’, (not Leslie.)

Also bonus points for the leash.
Update! Now hearing the chicken’s name might actually be “Nugget.” Stay tuned.

“Dear PoPville,
John McCormack Rd. NE, near Catholic University, has been changed from 2 ways to 1 way without proper signage and no notice that I am aware of. The avenue has become a one-way towards Michigan Ave. NE. There is no signage until the merge, which has caused drivers to run over the white street markers in order to enter Michigan Ave.NE; (more…)
