One of the best things about DC's reinvigorated local news landscape is that outlets are finding creative ways to tell their stories. This is great from @ben_brasch and @CityCast_DC!
We at @CityCast_DC are committed to getting Washingtonians to pay attention to the things that matter in our community. There's a huge revenue hearing Friday. So, cue the Minecraft.

Due to the massive crowds during the May Adams Morgan Porchfest and probably some complaints, apparently DC will be cracking down on some of the illegal open container drinking in the early Fall Porchfest (likely with focus on bars and restaurants selling to-go drinks)
No more “sip & stroll” public drinking during PorchFest?
