Thanks to Chris for sending: “Happy to see the new bus/bike-only lanes on 14th St NW!
But the red granular surfacing material is flaking off already. It doesn’t seem permanent. There are bits all over the sidewalk. What’s preventing this from eroding into the storm water sewer?” (more…)
Thanks to Jared for sending: “Electric Car charging station. New at Tivoli in Columbia Heights. Giants Parking Garage.”
Very cool. Anyone see these in elsewhere around town?

From Room 11:
“To our Room 11 friends, family, and neighbors. As cold weather approaches we are announcing the closing of the patio at Room 11 on November 1. Our daytime pop-up cafe – @aardvarkcafe – will continue to operate but Room 11 will go dark for the winter months.

Stay tuned for more info and an exact opening date.

“Dear PoPville,
I live on Euclid in Columbia Heights. Our entire building’s mail was bundled with a neighboring building and tossed at our front steps. It contained almost every mail in ballot for the November election. Lucky one of our residents noticed the bundle and brought it inside. Definitely not a normal delivery.”
From DC Board of Elections:
“Please remember that as ballots are arriving, they are being mailed in batches. Not everyone in the same household will receive their ballots on the same day.”
