[Lincolnparkdc] Lincoln Park closed

[Kane, Morgan (MPD)]

Hello Neighbors again,

US Park Police just called to notify me that they accidentally closed the entire park versus just closing the playground.  US Park Police will still come through the parks to ensure compliance with their NPS Record of Determination as well social distancing asks.  Please continue to work with us to flatten the curve!!!  MPD will continue to remind you as well.

Commander Kane

Hello neighbors!

The parks are closed.  I  just verified with US Park Police that the parks are closed and no one should be inside using them.  Officers from U.S. Park  Police and MPD will monitor and advise folks to leave the park and practice all the recommendations from the CDC and your local district government leaders in accordance with the Mayor’s Order 2020-053 and National Park Service Record of Determination.  We all are asked to play our important role in flattening the curve of COVID-19 infections.

I'm shocked -- shocked! -- to learn that the National Park Service and the federal government are sending confusing messages on coronavirus. ;)

Yes, definitely two different messages.

Those signs were placed in the general area, by the Lincoln statue, not the playground, after the police made people disperse prior to dusk, about 5:30 p.m.

However, I think you are fine as long as the police are not there. If the cops show up, be warned that I was told they were  writing tickets last night.

Perhaps someone could ask Eleanor to clarify.

This is confusing.

The website says all Capitol Hill Parks PLAYGROUNDS are closed, not the actual parks. https://www.nps.gov/cahi/index.htm

Not that i'm advocating for heading over. It is just unclear messaging.

And let me take this opportunity to send all of you a virtual hug.

Stay safe. Stay healthy. Stay home.
