“Dear PoPville,
On Friday night, March 21, I walked to the Cleveland Park metro on the side of the Target. It was around 8.20PM. A guy was standing near the elevators finishing a smoke and walked down the stairs behind me. We both waited for the next Red Line towards Glenmont.
We get on the same car. (more…)

UPDATE: Owner tells me via email that they have signed a leaseback after the building has sold and have not plans to close. Trying to get more details and will share as soon as I do. Great news!!
Ed. Note: I’ve really been holding off on this hoping it wasn’t really going to happen.

If you, like me, are a huge fan – I’d start going regularly while we still can.
“Dear PoPville,
