Transformers
Last month we talked about a billionaire doctor in D.C. named Dr. Newton Howard who has spent years fighting for a public permit to display three massive Transformers statues at his home. His neighbors say the statues bring disruptive foot traffic into the area and don’t align with the historical Georgetown neighborhood aesthetic. Yesterday, a D.C. panel ruled that Newton must remove the statues from the sidewalk, but he and his lawyer have vowed to keep fighting.
