D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty delivered his annual State of the District speech today at the Hattie Holmes Senior Wellness Center in Ward 4, the section of D.C. he used to represent on the D.C. Council. To call Fenty’s remarks today a “speech” is actually a bit a of a stretch; the mayor referred to the prepared text distributed to the media beforehand only loosely, instead relying on it as more of an outline to dole out a list of facts and figures on what his administration has accomplished over the last year.

Fenty arrived about 45 minutes late to deliver the address, leaving the audience, made up largely of senior citizens from the neighborhood, to grow restless enough that a handler decided to lead them all in stretching exercises while they waited.

When he finally took the podium, Fenty made a few glowing remarks about the Holmes Wellness Center, and then launched into what he came there to do: read off a bunch of numbers. The number of students who graduated from DCPS’s summer school class increased from 155 to 470. Schools facilities chief Allen Lew completed more than 27,000 work orders. The city hired 151 new police officers. More than 600 families and individuals were placed into supportive housing. DC Circulator bus service has grown by 16 percent. 220,646 potholes filled. And so on.
