Am I the only person offended by the horrific odor coming out of the Hotel Louise? In my eyes, the Hotel Louise is much more of an eyesore than the small house behind the tattoo shop that was recently demolished. And every visitor that comes downtown has to deal with the horrific odor. When will something be done about this?

I do a lot of running out on Park Avenue and all throughout Washington on Saturdays and most times during the week, and I find it highly offensive that this moron doesn’t like people running on the roads. Why don’t you get off the couch and come join me?
