The driver stayed on the scene and was interviewed by DCFD/DCPD. Two passengers in the flipped car left the scene shortly after the accident. No serious injuries, fortunately. But how do you flip a car on a narrow one-way residential street with 25mph speed limit? #BloomingdaleDC pic.twitter.com/qIy5zSXT0Q— Peter James (@peter_m_james) February 26, 2018

The Friends of McMillan Park is planning
another history walking tour through the Bloomingdale neighborhood and around
the perimeter of McMillan Park on Saturday, March 3 -- our first walking tour
for 2018. Once again, we are fortunate to have our neighbor and friend
Paul Cerruti leading the tour. Paul has compiled a tremendous amount of
detail about the park and its role in our neighborhood through the years since
it first opened to the public. This will cover a lot of the information
presented in history walks we did in 2017 that were very well attended and
enjoyed!
