Attention, Columbia Heights! The official word has just come down that D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty will formally dedicate the new Columbia Heights Plaza and "Resonance" Fountain on Monday, Sept. 28 at 10:30 a.m. So let all the endless speculation cease. It does seem, however, that the plaza itself was pretty much mostly done and open last night.

Also planned to be in attendance on Monday morning: Ward 1 Council member Jim Graham, who apparently won't let the arrest of his chief of staff prevent him from showing up for ribbon cuttings in his Ward.

I live one block from the new fountain and think it's a shameful waste of space and a poor design. I'm not excited to have to walk by it every day while pondering, "why did they name this 'Resonance'??" *sigh*

you sound like the type of person who'll be walking around pondering that aloud.


On Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year. GENIUS.

not to be all racially and culturally profiling on you here, but the majority of folk in that neighborhood (and the city) just won't be celebrating yom kippur. every day of the week would be problematic for someone...

i checked out the fountain on friday. not bad, but the sod in those raised berms ain't gonna last long...
