From the Mayor’s Office:

“Today, Mayor Muriel Bowser announced two monumental agreements to improve health care and address inequalities in health outcomes for District residents. The agreements include the construction of two new, state-of-the-art hospitals:

a 136-bed hospital at St. Elizabeths East in Ward 8, operated by Universal Health Services in conjunction with George Washington University and George Washington Medical Faculty Associates (GWMFA); and
a 225-bed Howard University Hospital on Georgia Avenue NW in Ward 1.

Both hospitals will build upon their existing and new networks of care to deliver fully integrated systems of care, offering the best in clinical integration. (more…)

Stephen writes: “I walked past Uproar Lounge earlier and the sign was down and paper was over the window. I hope this isn’t what I think it is!”

Their twitter is still live but hasn’t been updated in a while, their website is still live and their Facebook indicates they were doing take out as recently as Friday. Anyone know if they are still doing take out?


Thanks to Jeffrey for sending:

“Not nearly as cool as that rolling rock bottle, but I found these two tiny bottles in the dirt in my backyard. No idea what they might have been used for, or what their vintage is. My house is an 1870-ish rowhouse, the first building built on its block near Garrison Elementary.

I cleaned ’em up as well as I could and they’ve been holding these roses for years now.”

Ed. Note: Old perfume bottles?

If you have a photo of a neat find from your house or place of work please send an email to princeofpetworth(at)gmail.com thanks. Please let me know where/what neighborhood you found it in too. Thanks.

Thanks to Frank for sending from Columbia Heights:

“not sure if anyone has noticed but up here in Columbia Heights the police have moved to in front of the middle school rather than congregating inside the precinct.”

Related: A few other folks have asked, “Over the last three days, I have seen individual cop cars with their lights flashing posted at different intersections between Shaw and Logan Circle. I know this happens sometimes but when I take my dog back out three hours later I see the same cop cars with their lights flashing at separate intersections. Any idea what’s up with that?”
