Yesterday we complained about a particularly vicious set of potholes by Pennsylvania Avenue and 24th Street in Foggy Bottom, begging the District to finally fill the worst of the offenders so as to spare pedestrians the inevitable daily splashing as cars drive by.

Well, they seem to have listened.

As we walked to the Foggy Bottom Metro station yesterday afternoon, we quickly took a glimpse at the potholes, expecting them to have remained there, untouched. But the largest of the potholes was gone. It had been fixed. Years of carefully dodging it had finally come to an end.

We’re not saying we had anything to do with it getting fixed. But we applaud the District for finally getting it done.
