Eleventh Street Update Meeting

Mike Benardo, ANC 2C06, has a notice out:

The DC Department of Transportation (DDOT) will be providing a construction update meeting for the reconstruction of 11th Street, NW from L to O Streets, NW, on Tuesday July 21, 2009, from 6:00pm to 8:00pm.

Construction on the 11th St. NW project began in December 2008. Come and hear how construction is progressing and what construction activities are planned for the coming weeks and months.

The public meeting will be held at the Asbury United Methodist Church, 926 Eleventh Street, NW, Washington, DC (Access is through the side entrance on 11th Street).

Thank you,

Mike


There really is visible progress. The editor thinks that when the repair and upgrade of Eleventh Street is complete, renovation of the properties on the street will proceed. And a certain liquor store will become a memory, just like the "Gas Station From Hell" at Eight and M now is.

Early on, when the two blocks below 700 and 800 M were just a parking lot and only some row houses remained on the 1200 block of Eighth Street, there was a gas station at the northwest corner of Eight and M. Service was suspect, the gas was questionable, the drugs were probably good, and many very unsavory types hung out there. You have made me remember of of the the old nighttime sounds. Our bedroom is in the front, on M Street. Late at hight and early in the morning, you could hear taxis driving on flat tires to that station.
