Old Convention Center Parking Lot Construction Trailer Mystery Solved (Walt Disney Is In Town!)
Thanks to Becca for sending in this new pic of the activity at the old convention center site (approx. 11th & H St NW). We see that there is an additional trailer with a camera logo and Becca also notes that there are some food tents set up.
Everything came together when we received a notice from DDOT yesterday evening:
The D.C. Department of Transportation (DDOT), in cooperation with the D.C. Office of Motion Pictures and Television Production (OMPTD), advises motorists that Walt Disney Studios will be setting up production vehicles on both sides of Third Street, N.W., between Pennsylvania Avenue and Independence Avenue, from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m. Wednesday, March 28, 2007. Travel will be restricted in both curb lanes on Third Street between Pennsylvania Avenue and Independence Avenue.
On Thursday, March 29, from 4 a.m. to 10 p.m. production vehicles will be staged in the south curb lane on H Street, NW, between 15th and 17th streets and in both curb lanes on New York Avenue, NW, between 13th and 15th streets.
Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) officers will be on site throughout the production.
Ok, a Walt Disney movie.. We’re trying to think of what famous celebs will be gracing our neighborhood today.

This is a little outside our neighborhood, but Richard Rogers, the architect of the building at 300 NJ Ave (currently under construction) just won the Pritzker Prize! There are images of the new building on the post.com
a small crew was set up in front of the white house this morning. i actually jogged right past (and almost right in to) nicholas cage in lafayette park. great way to start the day!
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
nick cage and john voight will be at 35th and O NW tomorrow for this project. parking will be even a bigger zoo story and the G2 will have an alternate route or maybe not even reach the university.
