A roundup:
* The
Canal Park folks have recently begun using their Twitter account,
CanalParkDC. An update on the park's progress was
tweeted on Wednesday, though it probably wasn't what park fans want to read: "Rain delays, water in our excavation preventing pouring foundations. Very frustrating!"
* Louisiana State Society is having its
Crawfest at the Yards Park on Sunday (May 22), with 4200 pounds of boiled crawfish, 150 pounds of jambalaya, sausage, corn, and potatoes, Abita beer, Louisiana music, and more. Society members get in for $45 per person, while non-members can pay $55 to attend. (Tickets for children 12 and under are $15.)
*
DDOT says that its move out of the Reeves Center to Monument Realty's office building at
55 M is almost complete.
* Speaking of 55 M,
it was named "Best Urban Office over 150,000 SF" at the NAIOP Maryland/DC 9th Annual Awards of Excellence.
