I took this at Hains Point, Aug. 2016. 10 years later, people still bike, run, fish, picnic, golf...and harp by the river. In 1897, Congress said Potomac Park is for the “recreation and pleasure of the people.” Hains Point is Everyone’s Point. One person doesn’t get to decide. #saveeastpo #bikedc

Trump has wrecked many iconic D.C. sites, and now he’s taking an axe to trees in East Potomac Park, including historic cherry trees. I’ve heard from so many locals who hate this, but all Trump's people care about is appeasing his massive ego. This is awful.

Trees are coming down by the dozen as Trump’s D.C. golf makeover nears
The president’s promised overhaul of the East Potomac course has not officially begun, but tree removal has already been taking place for weeks.

More than a century after Congress set Hains Point aside for the “recreation and pleasure of the people,” plans for a major golf course overhaul raise an old question: Who gets to decide how it’s used?

Congress made Hains Point a public park. Will it stay that way?

Just published in @ggwash.org: I wrote about Hains Point 100, why this public space matters, and why the public should have a say in what happens next. Hains Point gave us room to make something special. That’s worth protecting. #bikearlington #bikedc #hp100 @waba.org ggwash.org/view/104662/...

I'm glad you asked! Here's just three examples of how @phoenixbikes.bsky.social supports local youth - 100% free of charge! 1) Youth can join the Earn-a-Bike program, learn how to fix up a donated bike, and ride it to school and their first job.
