“Dear PoPville,

Did you know they took the benches out of Grant circle/do you know why they did that? I was in the park last Monday or Tuesday and they were still there so this is recent development.”

Anyone hear what’s up? Hopefully just getting repaired/replaced like we’ve seen happen in Dupont Circle.

What the Helen of Troy is This

“Dear PoPville,

I’m curious if anyone knows what this device is on Mass Ave between the heritage foundation and the exxon. It just says “welcome” on the screen.
