Thanks to C. for sending: “Small section on north side of park is roped off and has a fresh layer of sod. Let’s hope park service covers the entire lawn!”
Ed. Note: I recently asked NPS about the status of the fountains at the park and was told:
“we aren’t certain about spring 2023 for turning on the fountains. It will be dependent what short-term fixes are needed, but we are hopeful. The bigger rehabilitation need has been scoped and funding for that hasn’t been identified as of yet.”

“Dear PoPville,
What’s happening to Meridian Hill/Malcolm X Park? This beautiful and unique urban park has been largely closed for over a year. While the National park service is having repairs done to the lower plaza, the rest of the park is open but severely neglected. Walkways are crumbling, weeds are growing out of control. The fountain is again turned off and getting overgrown.”
Thanks to Elizabeth for sending above: “Appears this tree was struck last night in the storm at Meridian hill/ Malcom x park! Yikes!”
And thanks to Lillian for sending the wild video of a “Manhole cover hovering on Florida Ave near North Capitol.”
And more flooding videos from Navy Yard and Kingman Park: (more…)
Thanks to Nick: “Today the US Park Police have been enforcing leash laws and writing tickets in Meridian Hill Park. Poop pickup really might be more necessary.”
