@nbcwashington: Blue, the big blue dancing metal statue outside of the Kennedy Center, is being taken down. Crews started dismantling the sculpture early Wednesday morning at the request of the Kennedy Center. Officials did not give a reason why. it is not uncommon for gifted and loaned artwork to be swapped out, but it comes as the Trump administration continues its effort to reshape the Kennedy Center. #washingtondc #maryland #virginia #pgcounty #dc #districtofcolumbia #dmv #northernvirginia #alexandriava #northernva #arlingtonva #fairfaxcounty #nova #md #mocomd #pgcountymd
