[quote=Anonymous][quote]This is on the mayor and the council. They're all culpable in this one.

And we wonder why we're fighting over scraps for the rest of our schools.

+1 Shepherd has the audacity to want their cafeteria and elevators covered. Murch dares to want its long-tabled plans realized? Garrison has been dicked around year after year. And to think that a few million is what derails these plans when Ellington is turning out to be the building of Versailles? What the hell is going on? People should go to jail on this.[/quote]

I agree, but I have to say, one of the major reasons Shepherd's cafeteria is now even more dangerous than ever is someone made an executive decision to stick a bunch of steel pilings alongside the alley, partially blocking egress.

I sure hope that kiln (the steel beams are there to support its weight, because apparently, it had to be on the second floor of an existing building) is getting a lot of use.

DC seems like a city where democracy plays out as a war of influences. Since moving here, I have become entirely disillusioned with the process. The Georgetown nimbys demanded underground parking? The teacher's unions said that no one could take the Metro? No one actually CAN take the Metro because no one wants to own getting it fixed? Seriously considering moving to a more functional place.

Like Baltimore.
