@Jasper-

Agreed that closures are part of city living, and my parallel article on my own site elaborates a bit more on how much I appreciate such a diverse number of events every weekend within walking distance of home. I also certainly agree that Penn Ave is a far better backdrop than RFK.

My concern isn't with the closures in and of themselves, but mostly with the length (a 20 minute detour shouldn't be tolerated regardless of mode), the lack of direction, and the lack of provisions for those with disabilities. Speaking from firsthand experience of, in the past, being the guy who doles out permits to exactly these kind of events: I can say that all three of these can be addressed while still enabling the event to continue on.
