In honor of the Nationals upcoming playoff run, D.C.’s city hall, the John A. Wilson Building, is going red again.
Per a release, Mayor Gray and the D.C. Council announced today that the building in which all local government affairs are conducted has, like the rest of the city, Natitude. Beginning tonight and lasting for as long as the Nats are in the playoffs, the building will be illuminated with a red exterior, just like it did during the Nats’ playoff run in 2012.
“As a lifelong baseball fan, I am extremely proud of the Nats. They’ve had an amazing season with some incredible individual performances – but what impresses me the most is how they play as a team. I’m excited to cheer them on all the way to the District’s first World Series win since 1924,” Mayor Gray said in a statement. “And starting tonight, we’re going to turn the Wilson Building red to show everyone that the District is behind them 100 percent.”
Go Nats!
