A Brookland carryout has recently blown up on social media for its innovative menu and snappy videos. @ecwilliams30 tried @TodaysPizzaDC's viral oxtail pie: 51st.news/oxtail-pizza-today…

For the team at Today's Pizza, it's always been bigger than the pies.

Thinking about sing along Wednesdays. Not Karaoke. Just hanging out, yelling the words to cheesy favorites. Venting! Together. Maybe 8. Feed the kids. Sneak out. Sing a little. Home by 10 or 11. What do you think?

Not so certain about this one. We've received no notifications and no one has reached out to the ANC or community. It would be nice to have something legit there since it has been vacant probably since COVID 19 and the church left.

Looks like Brookland will be getting a thrift store (near 12th and Hamlin NE)

Our 12th annual Fall Festival is coming up! We will have free games for the kiddos, food trucks, and live music from our friends Mars Rodeo. We always enjoy the community coming out to support us, and interact with the amazing retirees at the Armed Forces Retirement Home.

This is the “Franklin and Reed” project between the Franklin St bridge and Rhode Island Ave NE. Many neighbors and @RaAmin5b04 worked really hard on the PUD years ago.

It's all that Columbia Heights density that our amateur Brookland urban planners say is going to bring back 12th Street.

A true joy to be with neighbors at Deaf-REACH in Brookland today. They have been serving our deaf and hard-of-hearing community here since the 1970's, and I am so grateful for their work. They offer ASL classes and community building events, too! I look forward to partnering to advance their mission and expand their impact.
