We laughed, we danced, we drank too much. We’ve met friends we will stay in touch with for the rest of our lives. If you have a memory you would like to share, we would love to read it!

Streetcar signs – Legible or Not?

By Prince Of Petworth

“Dear PoPville,

Has anyone else noted how terrible the streetcar signs are? The contrast is terrible. I can barely make out when the next streetcar is coming when I stand in front of the sign, much less across the street trying to decide if I should cross to take it. Why would they put these up? They should have taken a note from WMATA, their signs are at least legible.”
