Just down on the mall. They are fencing it off with high fencing to Arlington cemetery. They were restricting access.
Cars are still able to use the streets but could be closed. Avoid the area. |

| They do this every year for the 4th. It's just a bit early because of the celebration of the Army's 250th. |

| You've got to wonder what they think they are preparing for. Most people aren't going to go near DC this weekend. |

Yup, I was over there this morning on foot. For the 4th they use light crowd control fencing on the edges of the roads. This is heavy, tall metal fencing placed right in the middle of the sidewalk/bike path. Considering the events aren't even on this side of the river, it's complete BS overkill. |

| Have a feeling there will be a lot of angry tourists who made plans to visit DC before this was all announced. |
