About 150 people are waiting for a 14-member crew to build the scaffolding needed to remove the 18 offending letters. The atmosphere is festival-like: People have brought their dogs, their partners and their kids. They oohed as lightning spidered across the sky and ahhed at a double rainbow. They cheered when a one-wheel rider zipped through the center's horseshoe driveway in a rainbow crop top and shorts, waving a bisexual pride flag. The Foo Fighters' "My Hero" blasted, followed by a request from a guy shouting to the workers above. "Remove the 'T' first!"

We appreciate collaboration with DC on station & gold line improvements needed for RFK. Goal to get MOU by end of July, then engineering/design, community engagement and procurement…leading to construction. Definitely will be impacts but too early for specifics. More to come
Hi @wmataGM! Hill East is glad to see $300 million in the budget for Stadium-Armory upgrades. Do you have a sense of if and when construction will begin and residents will see disruption? We hope the station isn't fully closed, even if one entrance is, given how many use it.

President Trump tells the @FinancialTimes that Israeli PM Netanyahu "won't have any choice" but to accept whatever the US negotiates w/ Iran---> "I call the shots. I call all the shots. He doesn't call the shots."

Multiple sources tell me that Gov. Spanberger, Del. Krizek, and Sen. Aird met and had a productive meeting and are close to figuring out how to establish a retail marijuana market in Virginia. Unclear if this means in the budget, or for the next legislative session.

It looks like the newly renovated Freedom Plaza is getting even more new statues. The one on horseback was planned, but there are now a dozen more statues lining the northern and southern edges of the plaza.

Bradley Blvd Update: Repairs to the 20-inch diameter water main are complete, and water service has been restored. Crews are now shifting their focus to road repairs. Work will begin on the eastbound side of Bradley Blvd which is expected to reopen later today. Once that side is complete, crews will move to the westbound side. Thank you for your patience.

NEWS: In the first public poll of the D.C. mayoral race, @CityCast_DC finds that @Janeese4DC has a five-point lead over @kenyanmcduffie, just outside the margin of error. But: Ranked-choice voting could help McDuffie more; he's ahead on getting voters' second rankings.

MPD says the fight at the Navy Yard Chipotle seen on social media did start after 8 p.m., when a teen curfew zone could have been in place. (They aren’t being used right now because the law authorizing them lapsed; a new version will take effect later this summer.)
A statement from the Metropolitan Police Department on an incident in Navy Yard Saturday evening:
