The Brookland Bridge

About

The original introduction, preserved from the saved website.

The Brookland Bridge was started in 2012 to chronicle the happenings in Brookland, a neighborhood in Northeast Washington DC. We started the blog because we saw the neighborhood we love transforming before our eyes and realized that our fellow neighbors needed a reliable, straightforward source of information about coming changes and the day-to-day happenings and events that make our community what it is. Our goal is to post one story a day, and to present a variety of content that will interest a wide swath of the community. Please note, we just don’t have the resources to update the blog on a real-time enough basis to keep the neighborhood updated on topics like missing people and pets or breaking crime stories, despite those being worthy topics. We hope you enjoy the blog and comment on the posts.

Neighborly,
Shani and Astrid
