First saw this Greater Greater Washington post and I thought, “What, dogs pee on the sidewalk? Yes, and?” But then I read more and thought they had a valid point.
Basically, there isn’t much green space around the Highland Park building, so dog owners are taking their dogs to a couple small tree boxes for them to do their business. That’s a lot of pee and poop in a small area, and some is getting on the sidewalk.
What’s the solution? More dog parks? Where? Who builds them, the city or apartment buildings?
One person says they take their pet to a grassy area outside the Columbia Heights Education Campus, and the rest of the commenters pillory them for that.
