@mattyglesias The same with alley set backs. In DC each ward had its own zoning czar who can interpret rules differently.

Recently several law firms (Ogletree Deakins, White & Case) signed leases for new offices in downtown DC. It would be easy for them to go: Fannie Mae threatened to break a 15-year, $770 million lease early. CoStar moved its HQ to Arlington. Downtown rests on the edge of a knife

Once again, DC taxpayers are being asked to make up for people not paying their rent.

The owners should redevelop the entire block and build apartments above the escalator, like they have across the street.

[Tenleytown & Around @Tenleytown411]

DC plans to build a canopy over the escalators on the east side entrance to Metro’s Tenleytown-AU Metro Station on Wisconsin Ave. The canopy should be finished by this December.

This comes after Metro’s late 2023 completion of a 2 year project to replace most of the escalators at the Tenleytown-AU station.

Great idea to add priority seating floor signage on @wmataGM

We did the math, got out of the way, and the result is dramatic.

@wmata @dcpl You should put housing on top it.

Missing no parking/no standing sign on northwest wide of River Rd and 42nd St NW. There’s one on the southwest side, but needs complementary sign. Cars block the walkway. @311DCgov @DDOTDC

Meet DuSable Lake Shore Drive in Chicago, IL:
A key goal of Better Streets Chicago’s advocacy is to plug work seeking to transform DLSD from an expressway into a boulevard with other efforts that reduce residents’ need to own or use a car for many trips.

Work is underway at the Ladybird development project (is it still called that?) at 48th and Yuma Streets in AU Park. The former Superfresh location plans to build over 200 new homes and a small grocer.

@311DCgov @NatlParkService @dcpublicschools @TenleyANC @MatthewFrumin Nebraska Ave NW, between Chesapeake and Fort Dr., it's the sidewalk along Fort Reno National Park

[David Cooling @davidjcooling]

@NatlParkService @311DCgov @dcpublicschools can you shovel the sidewalk in front of the National Park on Nebraska Ave NW between Jackson Reed and Deal? @TenleyANC @MatthewFrumin

[David Cooling @davidjcooling]

⁦@311DCgov⁩ I keep receiving this error message. Is the app working?

[David Cooling @davidjcooling]

There’s a no standing/parking sign missing on River Rd and Brandywine NW along the pocket park. Vehicles block the crosswalk and sight lines. @311DCgov @TenleyANC

[David Cooling @davidjcooling]

@311DCgov why would someone receive this alert? Are there days the app doesn’t work?

[More Speed Tables @ANCJonah]

This should be of interest to many of you you walk or bike kids to Creative Minds, Yu Ying or schools further east. DDOT is looking at installing a protected bike lane along Harewood NW/NE and Taylor St NE. There is a petition to support the project here:
