?Hello Neighbors -
We are having problems with our ATT service - for several days now. Our phones don’t work at our house! Wondering if it’s a neigborhood issue and if possibly we have a problem with a cell tower.
Or if I’m just personally cursed with all technology. I’m pretty sure it’s me, but thought I’d check out there to see anyone else is having similar issues.
Happy Monday!

Letter from the Mayor
Dear Washingtonians,?
We need more hands on board — more volunteers to knock on doors and help neighbors make a plan to get vaccinated.
Already, we have seen the power of our community working together to connect people to the vaccines. Through our Faith in the Vaccine program, over 3,000 members of our community have been vaccinated. Our Senior Vaccine Buddies have knocked on thousands of doors and made thousands of follow up calls to help seniors book and get to vaccination appointments.
Now it's your turn.?
Sign up to join us on Saturday, May 1. We have three start times for canvassing: 9:00 a.m., 11:00 a.m., and 1:00 p.m.?
Summer is just around the corner, and I know we are all eager to return to a better normal and spend more time having fun with family and friends.
This is our shot to end this, DC. Let's take it.?
RSVP for the Day of Action at , and then recruit three friends to join you.?
Sincerely,

They took my "volunteer" Mulberry tree a few years back. They
always have some places to put in a tree.

Re: UPDATE: Alley Naming Timeline and Voting Process
Hi Everyone -
Thank you! The list has been updated.
We absolutely encourage those who submitted/strongly support certain names to double check the name's description to make sure that what is written accurately represents their suggestion. Whatever is in the Google Doc is what will be sent out to households along with the ballots, so please reach out to us with any corrections.
Link to the names:

I think that most named alleys on Capitol Hill are named 'Court' instead of alley. When I give tours, I refer to them as alleys, though - mainly because I like to play up the seamier side of them. But I think Court should be the preferred moniker. As an aside: I was approached a few weeks ago by the NPS, who are considering?raising the status of the Furies House from the National Register of Historic Places to the National Historic Landmark list. Over the next year, they will hire a historian to do a full-on assessment of the property and its importance, this assessment will?then be reviewed, and if it passes, go to the NHL commission and then to the Secretary of the Interior for a final decision. Probably a two-year process, and I have no idea what the likelihood of it getting accepted?is. It would join (in SE DC) the Capitol, LOC, Navy Yard and Congressional Cemetery on the list.? As to Bethune: Big fan of hers. I would probably not take out-of-town groups to Lincoln Park if it were not for her statue there. My favorite Bethune statue anecdote can be found in the second-to-last paragraph of this piece:? Would probably prefer a name more directly related to the alley, however.

Hi Haley;
A couple of things. Could you provide me the name of the neighbor
that submitted Furies Alley? I would like to talk with him/her to
see if they would be interested in changing the submitted name to
Furies Court. Court would be my preference and it seems like
"court" is the preference of most of the names proposed. I like
using the name of the women's collective for the alley but Furies
Alley just has bad optics, makes it sound like a dangerous place.
It also seems that the description of the significance of the
collective could be heightened. From Wikipedia: The Furies'
theoretical contributions to the women's movement outlasted the
collective's existence. Future feminist groups across the country
cited the importance of the Furies' theoretical developments of
feminism to their own organizing efforts. Former members of the
collective, such as Rita Mae Brown, went on to other organizing
and activist positions, especially in media and publishing.
Lammas, the DC feminist bookstore, that closed in 2001, was
started by two members of the collective. In 2016 the house at 219
11th St. SE which was home to the Furies Collective was named as
the first lesbian-related historic landmark in Washington, D.C.,
when it was unanimously voted into the D.C. Inventory of Historic
Sites.
Second I also like Bethune Court but think the description is
inadequate to explain her importance. The National Women's History
Museum wrote " The daughter of former
slaves, Mary Jane McLeod Bethune became one of the most
important black educators, civil and women’s rights
leaders and government officials of the twentieth century.
The college she founded set educational standards for
today’s black colleges, and her role as an advisor to
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt gave African Americans
an advocate in government." Plus it should be noted we
have a link to the name as the statute commemorating
Bethune is located 2 blocks away in Lincoln Park.?
Thanks

Between

211-REAR will work together with ANC Steve Holtzman to
pre-filter names that are either invalid mailing addresses
(ex. street name already exists) or unlikely to pass the D.C.
council. By doing so, we will hopefully avoid a scenario where
the chosen name is rejected later in the process.

On
April 10th, we will release the final list so the block can
begin to vote. An "approval voting" method will be used. Each
eligible household will be able to vote for as many names as
they want to/approve of. The name receiving the greatest

Re: UPDATE: Alley Naming Timeline and Voting Process
Furies was top of my list. And 100% agree that 'court' is better than 'alley' both in this case and in general. I think that most named alleys on Capitol Hill are named 'Court' instead of alley. When I give tours, I refer to them as alleys, though - mainly because I like to play up the seamier side of them. But I think Court should be the preferred moniker. As an aside: I was approached a few weeks ago by the NPS, who are considering?raising the status of the Furies House from the National Register of Historic Places to the National Historic Landmark list. Over the next year, they will hire a historian to do a full-on assessment of the property and its importance, this assessment will?then be reviewed, and if it passes, go to the NHL commission and then to the Secretary of the Interior for a final decision. Probably a two-year process, and I have no idea what the likelihood of it getting accepted?is. It would join (in SE DC) the Capitol, LOC, Navy Yard and Congressional Cemetery on the list.? As to Bethune: Big fan of hers. I would probably not take out-of-town groups to Lincoln Park if it were not for her statue there. My favorite Bethune statue anecdote can be found in the second-to-last paragraph of this piece:? Would probably prefer a name more directly related to the alley, however.

Hi Haley;
A couple of things. Could you provide me the name of the neighbor
that submitted Furies Alley? I would like to talk with him/her to
see if they would be interested in changing the submitted name to
Furies Court. Court would be my preference and it seems like
"court" is the preference of most of the names proposed. I like
using the name of the women's collective for the alley but Furies
Alley just has bad optics, makes it sound like a dangerous place.
It also seems that the description of the significance of the
collective could be heightened. From Wikipedia: The Furies'
theoretical contributions to the women's movement outlasted the
collective's existence. Future feminist groups across the country
cited the importance of the Furies' theoretical developments of
feminism to their own organizing efforts. Former members of the
collective, such as Rita Mae Brown, went on to other organizing
and activist positions, especially in media and publishing.
Lammas, the DC feminist bookstore, that closed in 2001, was
started by two members of the collective. In 2016 the house at 219
11th St. SE which was home to the Furies Collective was named as
the first lesbian-related historic landmark in Washington, D.C.,
when it was unanimously voted into the D.C. Inventory of Historic
Sites.
Second I also like Bethune Court but think the description is
inadequate to explain her importance. The National Women's History
Museum wrote " The daughter of former
slaves, Mary Jane McLeod Bethune became one of the most
important black educators, civil and women’s rights
leaders and government officials of the twentieth century.
The college she founded set educational standards for
today’s black colleges, and her role as an advisor to
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt gave African Americans
an advocate in government." Plus it should be noted we
have a link to the name as the statute commemorating
Bethune is located 2 blocks away in Lincoln Park.?

Re: UPDATE: Alley Naming Timeline and Voting Process
Here’s another naming option. Many of the houses on the 200 block of 11th St. were built by TA Jameson. I suspect that the houses on the east side of 10th St. (similar design) were also built by Jameson. So how about Jameson Ct.? (This is also my favorite Irish whiskey)

Re: UPDATE: Alley Naming Timeline and Voting Process
Hi!? My name is Elizabeth Strawn.? From a recent email I gather that I may qualify to weigh in?? I am the tenant in #217 11th street SE, basement apartment.? I’ve lived there for 14 years (first as owner, now as tenant.)
I vote for Furies Alley. ?
The ones honoring Ruth Bader Ginsburg almost drew my vote but in the end I think many things (and people) will be named after her.? RBG be very well remembered in history, as she should.?

I just received this letter from the Zoning Board this week, which is something that concerns us all (I have also posted to the alley group).
I downloaded the relevant files from?(enter case number 20467). There are 20 exhibits, of which #6 is one you want to see (attached, 15 pages) -- it has pictures of the existing property, drawings of the proposed changes, and sightlines.
I have two thoughts. (1) All of the houses along the East side of 10th Street are two stories. This is unquestionably a pop-up, and it will make a new precedent. It is the "camel's nose in the tent" -- after this, any homeowner can also build a pop-up, and no doubt some will. (2) That might not be a bad thing, as I'm sure many of us would like more room, and this could make our houses more valuable.
I am interested in people's opinions.?
There will be an?ANC 6B hearing, followed by a BZA hearing. The ANC hearing has not been scheduled; the BZA hearing is Wednesday May 26th.
