Dirt Bike Debate, Penn Ave Redo, Goodbye (Maybe?!) to Ovi
DC is starting to feel like an old Dennis the Menace cartoon. Last week, the city was up in arms about teens running wild at Navy Yard. This week, there’s agita about dirt bike riders. We’ll get into it. Also: A big Pennsylvania Avenue re-do may be in the works, and the neighbor at number 1600 gets a big say in it. And we’ll talk about the end of the Ovi era in DC. Plus: City Cast members can listen in on a special members-only conversation about a rare new political poll of DC, just a couple months before the election.
