WASHINGTON D.C. – A massive security presence took over parts of Washington D.C. this week as President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris were sworn in Wednesday at the U.S. Capitol. That protection remained in place well past Wednesday’s inauguration, leaving some locals to wonder when the military and police presence will subside. Among the visitors from out of town for Wednesday’s events were a mother of five from Atlanta and a lone flag bearer from Philadelphia, who walked around where he could amid the layers of security. The Miami-Dade Police Department Rapid Deployment Force that traveled to the Nation’s Capital to assist with the day’s events were on patrol before dawn, posted along the Inauguration parade route. Protests that had been planned for Inauguration Day were cancelled after the events of Jan. 6 when rioters stormed the Capitol Building.

A full-throated, supremely confident Lady Gaga belted out the national anthem at President Joe Biden's inauguration in a very Gaga way — with flamboyance, fashion and passion. While stars mostly eschewed Trump's inauguration four years ago, the A-list was back for Biden. Brooks was careful to call his decision to perform on Wednesday non-political, and in the spirit of unity. He had performed during the inaugural celebration for Obama in 2009, but turned down a chance to perform for Trump in 2017, citing a scheduling conflict. Alone with his guitar, The Boss sang his “Land of Hope and Dreams” in front of the Lincoln Memorial.

(AP Photo/Andrew Harnik)Like so much this past year, the inaugural celebration will be like no other: pared down, distanced, much of it virtual. But for actor Christopher Jackson — the original George Washington in Broadway's “Hamilton" — performing in a virtual “ball” is a way of participating in an essential rite of American democracy. Miranda will contribute a classical recitation, joining musicians like Bruce Springsteen, Katy Perry, John Legend, Demi Lovato, Foo Fighters, Justin Timberlake and Bon Jovi. The inaugural committee has made sure to blend this high-powered list with ordinary Americans and inspiring stories. And the “AAPI Inaugural Ball: Breaking Barriers” celebrated the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities with planned participants including actors Kal Penn, John Cho, Kumail Nanjiani and Chloe Bennet.

Another plus comes at the tower’s north end, where a small, unfinished outdoor plaza will provide seating for the public and dedicated seating for customers of a restaurant from noted chef Jose Andres and the Gibsons Restaurant Group. The plaza offers fine views of the handsome Boeing headquarters across the river. The value of such open spaces, which serve as clearings in the urban forest, cannot be overstated.
