WashPo | DeEvening Links: Don’t recycle your parking meters here

Loving the love. Go HERE to read the full post by Mike DeBonis.

Excerpt:

Yesterday, the city transportation department installed parking meters in downtown Anacostia. Not just any parking meters — used, decrepit, ugly coin-operated parking meters, not the spanking new solar-powered, credit-card-taking multispace meters now being installed in other parts of the city. Today, the meters were gone, and Congress Heights on the Rise offers praise: “It took less than 24 hours for DDOT to see the light of day and expire those old janky coin-operated-doesn’t-take-a-credit-card-hand-me-downs-from-northwest meters. No word yet on what the plans are for paid parking in Anacostia but I think the message has been sent, ‘Ward 8 is watching and you better come correct.’”
