“Dear PoPville,
This storage container has been parked on 15th st for years. I pass it everyday thinking how is somebody managing to keep it parked there, taking up public space? It must be that it’s inconspicuous enough to be ignored. Don’t you need a permit for these? (between R & S St NW)”
How does this normally work, you need a permit for one of these things? Anyone know how frequently they need to be renewed/can be issued for?
A blue note is a musical moment that doesn’t quite land where you expect. And that’s the spirit behind this burlesque revue from DMVariety!
Start your weekend early with Blue Note Burlesque, a night of vintage tease and thrilling variety acts that’ll leave you exclaiming “I can’t believe I found this in an alley!”

20th/New Hampshire and O Street, NW
From the Heurich House Museum:
“As you probably remember, the Heurich House Museum has been taking care of Sonny Bono Park since 2014 when we made an agreement with DPR to manage it. Before then, it was constantly filled with piles of garbage – and by that, I mean MOUNDS of filled trash bags.
In 2015, our staff and a group of dedicated volunteers replanted the park using money we raised for that purpose. Today, the museum’s gardener Walter (recently retired from a career at Dumbarton Oaks) maintains the park on a weekly basis – over time, he has added plants and trees, and he regularly mulches and waters. In the past, people have stolen trees and plants, and over the last month, someone has been cutting down many of Walter’s plants. (more…)
