“Dear PoPville,
A van hit my car last Thursday 9/12 in my building lot on Woodley Park (behind 2828 Connecticut Ave nw)- the driver stops, gets out, notices the damage, and drives on. Any chance some enterprising detectives might be able to come up with something from the video?”

“Dear PoPville,
I’m looking for tips on researching the history of our 20-unit building in Woodley Park. I’m pretty sure (but not 100% sure) that the building turns 100 years old next year, and it would be nice to do something to commemorate the occasion. It would also be cool to learn about the building’s history and if there have been any interesting occupants. Where should I start?”
Ed. Note: I’d say head to DCPL’s Washingtoniana location in Van Ness.
