The residence at Massachusetts Avenue, S and 24th Streets faces the federal triangle park featuring the statue of Irish patriot Robert Emmet. RMA is reviving the historic landscape in this area, through tree plantings with several embassies, supporting tree services and work by volunteer Treekeepers. At the party Treekeepers sported their "No Mulch Volcano" buttons. Below Treekeepers Jon Gossens and Caitlin Phillips spread the word.
