EDITORIALAnother busy year in our community is rapidly coming to an end as the holiday season approaches. Before the BCA concludes 2018, I would like to alert you to

two final events. On Sunday, December 2nd in the afternoon, Santa Claus and his helpers will be visiting children around Burleith; and from December 14-19 we will once again sponsor a holiday decoration contest with judging on the 19th. Please check your email for more details as we get closer to the dates. Also, it is not too early to mark your calendars for our first event of 2019, the Winter Gløgg Party provisionally scheduled for Sunday, February 3rd, which will take place before the Superbowl starts. We are always looking for volunteers. Right now, we are in need of a new organizer for the summer picnic, which will likely be on June 15th next year. If you are interested, please email us at: [email protected]. Also, I know that the federal tax code has changed, but as the year closes and you are looking for a venue for tax deductible donations, please consider giving to the Burleith Community Fund (BCF): http://www.burleith.org/burleith-community-fund/ The 2018 BCA Annual Meeting was held on Thursday, November 8th at the Duke Ellington School of the Arts. Everything is in order with the association—our finances are sound and our newly elected board is 12 strong, with incoming members Alicia Amling, Andrew Dunnaville, Linda Hager Hall, and Michael McDuffie. We continued our tradition of providing certificates of

appreciation to supporters of the community. This year, we honored Christopher Murphy, Georgetown University’s vice president of external engagement; Town Hall, which has donated a lot to the summer picnic; and the Washington International School, which has generously opened its space for our meetings and events over the years. A particular highlight of the meeting was Mayor Muriel Bowser’s lengthy remarks on the current state of DC, her first address to a community meeting after her re-election two days before. On that note, congratulations to all of the winning candidates for various offices, in particular, Kishan Putta who will be the new ANC 2E representative for Burleith and Hillandale. I would like to thank all of the individuals who made the annual meeting such a success with an especial shout-out to Hop, Cask & Barrel, which provided the beverages and Silver at Cathedral Commons, which generously donated the delicious food. The BCA will have a full agenda in the new year. We will continue to monitor the impacts of projects such as the green alley initiative, construction at the MedStar Georgetown University Hospital, and other projects such as improvements near the tot lot, the soon-to-be opened Trader Joe’s on Wisconsin, and the renovation of Hyde-Addison School (where Burleith children will attend once it re-opens). The BCA will also continue to represent the community in front of the ANC and on the Georgetown Community Partnership. Moreover, there are some new initiatives that we would like to consider. There is some discussion about making T and S Streets one-ways (going west and east,

respectively), mainly to accommodate the D2 bus that often snarls traffic on T Street. Such changes might also allow for the installation of bicycle lanes as well. We will reach out to DDOT and the community via a survey. We will also try to avoid the loss of any parking places if changes are implemented. We are also contemplating ways that the BCA can support our local schools, such as Hardy Middle School. Finally, Burleith will be celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2023, so it is not too early to start brainstorming. Please also be on the lookout for a survey where we solicit ideas for the centennial.To conclude, we are bidding farewell to several board members who have volunteered countless hours over many years for the betterment of the BCA and our community more generally. Stacy Davis has been an amazing editor of the Burleith Bell over the last few years, as well as helping out the BCA in countless other ways. Liane Jones has masterfully cultivated our relationships with advertisers and has assisted with innumerable BCA events such as the summer picnic. Kay Twomey has been a constant and ever-thoughtful presence on the Board for a decade and has done yeoman’s work with events, especially organizing our marquee summer picnic. I wish her all the best with her new position on the board of the Duke Ellington School of the Arts.Finally, Ed Solomon, our ANC commissioner for the last 14 years will be concluding his tenure at the end of the month. I would like to thank Ed from the bottom of my heart for his years of dedicated service to Burleith. His list of accomplishments is long but highlights

COMMUNITYinclude: helping to guide the community through the renovations of Hardy Middle School and the Duke Ellington School of the Arts, advocating for the neighborhood in the context of the Georgetown University campus plan, and leading a city-wide coalition to combat the increase in airplane noise from National Airport. He has also

helped individual neighbors in a myriad of ways. For example, years ago, there was an intrusive noise emanating from the AC/compressor units at the recently renovated Hardy Middle School. Ed set up a meeting with stakeholders at midnight one evening to assess the situation and then pressured the contractors until the problem was

solved. This anecdote epitomizes Ed’s tireless commitment to neighbors. The residents of Burleith are truly grateful. Happy Holidays!

A Welcome Note from Incoming ANC Commissioner Kishan Putta

Divya and I want to thank our neighbors for all their time, encouragement, and support this year. We also want to thank Commissioner Solomon for his years of service to our community. We wish you all a happy holiday season. I hope to see many of you at your homes with the BCA’s own Santa Claus Dwane Starlin. Divya and I will also be hosting a holiday gathering at our home from 2-5 p.m. on Sunday December 16. Please email [email protected] to receive the invitation and to RSVP.

I will begin my term on January 2 and look forward to working with you to improve our neighborhood. This past summer and fall, when Divya and I (and our baby boy Om, too!) knocked on doors in our neighborhood, we were greeted very warmly. Many of you invited us into your homes and we enjoyed meeting every one of you.

Sometimes Om would get fussy and we’d have to dance a little or raise our voices, but we got it done and thank everyone for their kindness. My shirts would always be soaked with baby-drool by the time we got home, but overall he was a great sport about campaigning…

The Bell asked us if we’d like to share our experiences and observations and hopes for the next year. We definitely have some unforgettable memories. After a year of campaigning, it was very nice to see so many of you on election day. Many of you told us that you appreciated all of our visits, notes, emails, and calls. We are most proud that the turnout in our district was more than double the turnout in recent midterm elections.

We hope to keep that level of community engagement going. Please sign up for our monthly email updates at [email protected]. I will also be posting interesting local events and updates on social

media (On Twitter @kishanputta and on Facebook, Kishan Putta ).

Getting our ANC to use Social Media more is one transparency improvement that many of you requested. I will try, but I can promise that I will use Twitter to reach the government in addition to emails and phone calls and 311. Even if you do not have Twitter, you can email me photos of any problems you are having (with an address location) and I will be happy to post for you and tag the relevant agencies and officials. Let us know if you want us to use Instagram and/or Snapchat, too. We will try!

The most common question I hear is, “What’s Going on With Jelleff?” Several residents asked about improving the Jelleff Recreation Center (next to Safeway) for residents of all ages to enjoy

together. We have a great opportunity with the city’s initial $7 million commitment this fiscal year. But residents at the July meeting said they wanted more multipurpose indoor space, which may require more funding. A group of residents — Jelleff Community Friends — has formed to advocate for this. Please email your ideas to [email protected] and connect to Jelleff Community Friends on Facebook. We will let you know about the next meeting and update you on our advocacy and share ways you can get involved.

We are all in this together. I thank you for your votes and promise to work hard for you. I will help amplify your voices. But we need you to stay engaged. Real improvements are possible if we work together as a community. We’re really looking forward to making this journey with you. Thank you for your support. Happy Holidays from our family to yours!

Kishan Putta campaigns with his son, Om, in Burleith. (Kishan Putta)

COMMUNITYA Great Time to be in Burleith ‚ Largely Good News at BCA Annual Meeting

To cap off a civic-minded week, about 70 Burleith Citizens Association members and guests assembled at Duke Ellington School of the Arts for the 2018 Annual meeting. Ellington CEO Tia Powell Harris welcomed the community. She announced the school seeks community participation in a series called “35th and R.” Harris invited everyone to the school’s holiday celebration in December, and for those who can’t attend the festivities, all are welcome to sign up online for a tour. Ellington is truly a gem of the neighborhood, and a Saturday afternoon would be well spent exploring the white-walled, color-filled school dedicated to the arts with a rich history.

BCA President Eric Langenbacher outlined the highlights of a successful year for the BCA. The BCA hosted many fun events like the Summer Picnic and kids’ Halloween party, and they also spearheaded community conversations such as the nearly two-year-long dialogue surrounding Historic Designation. The Historic Designation discussion ended after over 70 percent of survey respondents said they did not support pursuing the classification.

Additionally, members of the BCA participated in the Fair Skies Coalition, a group seeking relief from airplane noise. The Board continues to formally monitor the development at MedStar Hospital and the Green Alley Initiative affecting many Burleith alleyways. Throughout 2019 the group will further explore changes to traffic patterns throughout the neighborhood, specifically looking at designating parts of S and T Streets as one-way.

In part thanks to the heightened interest during the HD debate, BCA membership increased to 203 dues-paying members. The budget is healthy, carrying about $18,000 in reserves. The largest annual expense is the summer picnic.

A heartfelt thanks from Langenbacher to Christopher Murphy, Vice President for Government Relations and Community Engagement at Georgetown University; Paul Holder, Managing Partner of Town Hall and The Salt Line; and Dale Temple with Washington International School’s Primary School Campus. Murphy, Holder and Temple’s work within and dedication to the community was recognized with community awards from the BCA.

Ward 2 Councilman Jack Evans praised the neighborhood, saying it’s a great time to be in Burleith and the City. He acknowledged the District’s bond rating is now AAA. Despite the positive momentum though, Evans noted the empty storefronts along Wisconsin and M Street are a major concern for him and residents in Ward 2.

Repeating the positive theme, Mayor Muriel Bowser reiterated the bond rating Evans mentioned is an important element for the city’s healthy financial future. Because of the improved rating, D.C. will see huge savings on loans and products. Bowser said the State of the District is “fantastic.” The City is growing in population, which is terrific for its finances. As the city grows, new neighborhoods are being re-activated, expanding and contributing financially. Private sector job growth within the District is outpacing that in surrounding communities, said Bowser.

Priorities for the future include: keeping technology a focus for jobs and training; Making further investments in schools, with investments in grades, graduation and attendance; infrastructure improvements, including sustained capital funding for the Metro from D.C. and surrounding jurisdictions; improving alleys and streets across D.C.; taking a look at homeless encampments and how to address them; providing short-term family housing; and looking proactively at possible real estate transactions with the Federal Government (Franklin Square, Memorial Bridge, RFK Stadium).

Bowser concluded by saying that Statehood for D.C. is not a constitutional question, it’s partisan politics. She wants to enlist the business community in the Statehood mission.

Audience members thanked the Mayor and her administration for items ranging from space for the March for Our Lives protest to small business funding programs, to the airplane noise issue.

Bowser faced several questions about area schools. One participant raised the concern about crowding at Wilson High School, particularly given the recent increase in enrollment at its feeder middle schools. The Mayor said she wants to create another good option for families in Benjamin Banneker, increasing the number of seats at the school. She raised the possibility of an additional high school in Northwest Washington. She further noted that Ellington is not at capacity and questioned if there might be a way for the school to be dual use, both charter and public. But she cautioned it was important to increase enrollment in arts-focused students.

A few other community leaders shared updates as well. Department of Public Works Director Christopher Shorter touched on many issues which the neighborhood listserve has recently addressed. He said partially open trash cans should not receive any violations. He also said his teams are focused on parking enforcement in the area, recognizing that parking is very tight in Burleith. DPW is currently running its annual leaf collection program and preparing for a successful snow removal program.

COMMUNITYANC Commissioner Ed Solomon and 2nd District Police Commander Melvin Gresham both spoke about a recent uptick in concerns over safety and security given break-ins of vehicles and homes. Solomon thanked Gresham for his speedy responses and proactive engagement with the community. Gresham said programs like the camera rebate program are working and encouraged community members to investigate the program. He also reminded residents that the Police will conduct safety assessments of their properties if they request one. Finally, Gresham urged neighbors to report homeless encampments, saying the Police will work with various lead agencies on addressing those.

Georgetown University’s Cory Peterson listened thoughtfully to the issues facing Burleith and its many student residents. He invited the community to contact him about hosting a Bridge

dinner — an event where a resident opens their home for dinner with students, and in return gets dinner on the University’s dime and a chance to interact with students. Hospital construction continues to eventually provide a much better product to the school and community. Pedestrian flow from the hospital into Burleith should remain steady, but thanks to new timing of traffic lights and pedestrian intervals those on foot should be safer in the future. An updated timeline for the MedStar construction is expected soon.

Finally, some news on Burleith’s smallest — and peskiest — residents. The District has started a pilot rat sterilization program to try to combat the pestilential problem and will continue to use dry ice in its arsenal to combat the rising rat population. Like every issue: If you see something, say something. In the case of rats, say it to your friendly 3-1-1 operators.

Bread — Glorious Bread! By Corinna Lothar

Bread. Bread, glorious bread; it is indeed the staff of life. And SO are pastries. Georgetown with its six bakeries is becoming like Paris with a boulangerie/patisserie every few blocks. Not all bake bread. Some of the best bread is baked by Paul, a branch of the French cafe-bakery founded in France in 1889; Boulangerie Christophe, a joint venture between two friends from St. Tropez, France — entrepreneur David Martin and third generation baker Christophe Roux; and by Fresh Baguette, Gerogetown’s newest bakery with branches in Bethesda and Rockville.

Paul’s baguette is a chewy one, Christophe’s is more akin to the traditional Parisian baguette with a crunchy exterior and a soft interior. The baguette at Fresh Baguette comes in various styles and forms. The latter, although unlike authentic Parisian bread, is perfect for a breakfast “tartine” (bread, butter and jam) with a slightly chewy exterior and an interior a little more soft than usual.

All three establishments bake several other breads, priced between $3.50 and $9.00. We were disappointed with Christophe’s apricot hazelnut bread ($5.50). The bread is bland, overly crusty with little flavor. By the day after purchase, it was good only for toast.On the other hand, the “bread of the month” at Fresh Baguette is a tender, slightly fruity fig loaf, good for any purpose.

The croissants at these three bakeries are delicious, perfectly flaky, buttery, slightly fluffy with layers of delicate dough on the inside. Mini croissants ($1 at Paul, $1.65 at Christophe, and $1.95 at Fresh Baguette) are available. For fans of Nutella, Fresh Baguette makes a lovely Nutella knot brioche ($4.50).

Paul’s croissants and some pastries are available at Georgetown’s newest cafe, Cafe Georgetown. The airy, blue and white cafe makes excellent sandwiches with Paul’s sesame baguettes. The cafe specializes in coffee, including Turkish coffee, and has a wine bar in its back sun room. In addition to coffee, wines and pastries, Cafe Georgetown serves soup, sandwiches and salads. In a separate section are Kosher salads and bagels.

Two varieties of bread are baked at Dog Tag Bakery. The ciabatta loaf is good but overly crusty, contrasted with a softer and light interior. Good for toast, but not for sandwiches. Half a loaf is priced at $3.25. Croissants are large and neither delicate nor buttery.

Patisserie Poupon has long been the queen of French patisseries, and continues to carry the crown for its pastries, tarts, cakes, and chocolates. The variety is extensive and each is delicious, be it a fruit tartlet or a Christmas Buche de Noel. A specialty is the Gateau Breton, a rich, buttery tea cake from Brittany. For Christmas the bakery makes a number of special cakes, as does Fresh Baguette, especially Yule Logs. The bread, however, which is not made in house, is not the bakery’s strong point. At a recent visit, only very large loaves, including large brioches were available, all priced above $7. The brioche makes excellent toast, but is overbaked, not fresh and soft enough to eat without toasting. Sad to report, the croissants, once the pride of the city, are no longer as crisp and fresh as they once were.

All of these bakeries, except Fresh Baguette, also serve breakfast and lunch items such as salads, quiches, sandwiches and other bakery-connected dishes at reasonable prices, as well as individual French pastries. Fresh Baguette prepares a number of sandwiches and a fine selection of pastries, including coffee and chocolate mini eclairs.

Baked & Wired is another good source for croissants. Although theirs are the larger American (as opposed to French) version, they are very good, deeply buttery with many layers of soft dough on the inside. The croissants and bread — baguettes, focaccia and sour dough — are made by Baked & Wired’s sister restaurant, A Bake Joint.

In a pinch, there’s always the Georgetown Safeway bakery which makes fresh, reasonably priced, and acceptable loaves.

Residents Tackle Trash and Find Community at Fall CleanupBy Janice Sims

About a dozen Burleith and Hillandale residents gathered in October to spend a few hours cleaning up the neighborhood. With the help of many volunteers from the neighborhoods, including an enthusiastic group of GU students, our new neighbors at Halcyon Arts Lab, GU Facilities, GU Campus Ministry and GU Office of Neighborhood Life the group was able to pick up

a lot of litter, rotting pumpkins, bulk items, and even an abandoned grocery cart. As always, the most ubiquitous item was the red solo cup and its partner, empty beer cans. Special thanks to DC DPW's Helping Hands Program for providing trash bags and tools as well as Glen Harrison and Jennifer Jarrett for snacks and coffee that kept volunteers going on a chilly fall morning.
