All the usual suspects — Jim Graham, Gary Imhoff, neighborhood leaders, the Columbia Heights listserv, and so forth — are involved, in what is surely a fantastic story to share with your out-of-town friends if you feel like showing off just how silly local politics can get around here.
But we at DCist always are striving to know what the people — what you, dear reader — want. So, we ask: what should the park be called? Feel free to note your choice below, and add additional suggestions in the comments.
