I was on a north-bound red line train around 4:15 in the afternoon, and when we got to Fort Totten, the police held the train after departing passengers got off (though those of us who were continuing north remained on the train).

“Dear PoPville,

Does anyone know the plan to (hopefully) redevelop the property at 1900 7th St NW where the abandoned CVS is?
