“Can DC Parking parking department correct this confusing sign in front of the Darcy Hotel (1515 Rhode Island Ave NW, Washington, DC 20005 ) It’s hard enough finding parking.”
DC311 is on it, so hopefully fixed soon!

Thanks to Alex for the reminder – and happy birthday!
Standby for more info on the leaf collection schedule – which starts Monday.
A reader writes us on Saturday:
“Please let your readers know that they should avoid parking overnight on 4th St NW between K and L. Every few weeks there’s one or two break-ins, but this morning all but one of these cars had their windows smashed — 15 at my count.”
But also be consider where you park. Thanks to Ruth for sending from Capitol Hill. (more…)
1600 block of V Street, NW
“Dear PoPville,
This is the second time in a week (and umpteenth time this year) that the police have parked in our designated, residential handicapped parking spot. Not for emergency purposes, but for their convenience because we live across the street from the police station. The last time they did this they left the car in the spot overnight. I have at least a dozen other photos of them parking in our spot.”
Thanks to Sarah for sending: “Spotted in Georgetown… DDOT no parking sign for literally two minutes of the day.”
Thanks to Joanna for sending: “Maryland truck parked in permit only parking, in front of a fire hydrant, and past the parking sign post which in turn visually blocks the stop sign from traffic. I’ve seen people blow through intersections when work trucks park like this because they fail to see the stop sign.”
Spotted this guy in Cleveland Park yesterday
Ed. Note: Don’t forget you can get a free ride today to celebrate the 9 year anniversary. Just don’t forget to park it back in a proper dock when you’re done.
Thanks to Angela for sending: “Welcome to the neighborhood Republic Cantina. Related announcement Republic Cantina is open for dinner now and excellent.” (more…)
Thanks to Sylvia for sending on Friday:
“They are repaving swann between 16 and 17 NW. Today was dig up the road day. This car didn’t move and instead of towing it they just left the car on its own little piece of street and dug around it. It doesn’t even have tickets on it! How do I get this treatment? If I am 2 min late for street cleaning, my cars already been towed 3 blocks away.”
