What did the mediator do when the architect and owner argued on his birthday? Threw a Neutral Third Party. (Logs off)

Not sure if this was here when the house was up but the symbolism of the studs in front is pretty representation of the current status of Trinidad... @theHillisHome @PoPville

So @ANC5D @311DCgov this entire block is not only blocked by construction(that they use for personal parking) but they left open a number of manhole covers, and block what little parking is left with cones. #KstNE @e_burkett @ShropANC5D02

On top of all of this is street sweeping, the constant construction debris and parked workers block cleaning and resident parking. Fun times for residents who already battle illegal @FlatsAtAtlas parking.

For February my office at @PEDC_Design does building technology exercises. I came up with the idea for a temporary installation (not pretty) of “Live Architectural Tags” to demonstrate code, LEED, and regulations in our office environment as a learning experience. @PerkinsEastman

This is terrible. I hate it. I strongly dislike whomever “designed” it. Have some respect.

14 hours later. Here’s the “aftermath” of my tweet...

Anyone know what’s up with @DCStreetcar at Benning & H? 2 empty cars back to back with police and a bus across the street. @ANC5D @DDOTDC
I mean... it has #MustHave... #WhereMyArchitectsAt???

This was a real good try 14th St, but this thing is confusing and awkward. #DC Next time put the bike lane inside the parking, and add protection. You even can add a tree for rain cover at the bus stop. Parked cars should protect cyclists, not the other way around. @DDOTDC

Replying to @e_burkett
@e_burkett hey Jason. I was wondering if we (residents of K st) can get a pause on “street cleaning” during all this construction. People can’t park anywhere and the street is destroyed anyway. @ANC5D @ANC5D_Zoning

Apparently you’re not #ANC5D02, sorry. I’ll email Steven. Any help/guidance is appreciated...
