A few hundred runners, cyclists, nature lovers, rollerbladers and more rallied at East Potomac Park this morning in opposition of President Trump’s plan to close the park and potentially renovate it for use only as an 18-hole golf course.

I mapped out an eight mile bike ride to see the damage Trump has done to DC, including Lafayette Park, Kennedy Center, Reflecting Pool and East Potomac Park. It's the Tour de Destruction joeflood.com/2026/10/28/tour…

40K people got to see what we are fighting for today. And what are we fighting for? Access to space on public land. The desire to not see an entire multipurpose space converted to an upscale golf course. Real radical ideas…
Let’s hope the MCM, and everyone else, can continue to use this park.

Interesting: @DDOTDC has finalized rules changing the discount program for low-income residents for e-scooters and e-bikes offered by companies like Lime. Instead of unlimited rides under 30 minutes, those riders will now get 300 minutes a month.

Now Open Again:
BUL Korean Bar & Restaurant.
Welcome back. After closing in late June after nearly 12 years in business, the Korean restaurant reopened almost 4 months later.
BUL posted for the first time today on its new Insta @bulkoreanrestaurant.

This proposed plan is absolutely unacceptable.
Here’s what the plan actually does: 36 holes of public golf cut to 18. No more mini golf. No more park. More running / cycling road. No more playground. No more introductory course. Nobody has said a word about the Cherry blossoms.
Who is this actually for? Not the kid learning to golf. Not the family in a walk. Not the birders.
This was never about the public. It’s for the elitists who want a private showcase, and one man’s ego.

You have got to be f**king kidding me… an 18 hole golf course that fully absorbs the entirety of Hains Point. Disgusting and shameful acts by Department of Interior.
We have been saying this for MONTHS.

Public park access in the nations capital being removed in favor of private golf space is really vile.

The Dupont Circle deckover project is winding down, and what used to be an open gap on Connecticut Avenue to the underpass below is now largely closed up.
Long live 17th St
Astoria and Copycat Co. owner Devin Gong’s new spot Astro Zombie will offer tiki favorites and a Chinese-American menu in a space he describes as a “spaceship diner.”

Parking tickets (and any vehicle tickets) are very easy to avoid!
Don’t want parking tickets? Don’t park illegally.
Don’t want speeding tickets? Drive the speed limit.
Why are we encouraging illegal behavior?
YES

Saturday.

Yesterday I testified in Council on the importance of place-management entities, supporting both a BID for the U Street corridor (finally!) and a Neighborhood Management Authority for Columbia Heights... which should be the beating heart of the District's Latino community.

These closers fell right to city’s and mayors lack of helping small businesses and making it too hard to be small business owner in this city.
Matthew Holden retweeted
sort of shocking how much DC seems to be stuck under the thumb of a class of people who believe the city has too many businesses, too much nightlife, too many residents, and is too much fun
The slow death of neighborhood serving retail is a huge quality of life crisis that DC needs to solve to remain a vibrant, livable city
