‘House of the Day’ this week has featured lots of great ones from Crestwood – can’t wait to see how this one turns out:
Thumbs up or down or neutral?
Thanks to a reader for sending from 8th and Webster St, NW. We’ve talked a lot about pop ups but I think this is one of the first pop outs we’ve seen, like how it turned out? I’m going thumbs up.
Before:
I know it won’t be to everyone’s taste, obviously, but I dig it. Last we heard it was going to be used as someone’s office. From P Street just west of North Capitol.
“Dear PoPville,
Perhaps you can help me out with this – it’s been bugging me.
I’ve attached a photo below, on the left you’ll see a new building in the Linq complex in Las Vegas, NV. It opened in 2014. On the right you’ll see the old Hecht Company Warehouse, built in 1937 on New York Avenue.
How on earth did this happen? Is it an homage?

Thanks for any insight you can give!”

The Oslo’s website says:
“Oslo is a 9-unit apartment building in Shaw. There are 3- and 4-bedroom units. It’s the perfect home for friends, or maybe you just like a lot of space.
FEATURES:
It’s a brand new building.
Every bedroom has its own bathroom. Never again will you argue over whose turn it is to buy toilet paper.
Modern design, space efficient units, minimalist features.
Kitchen with stainless steel appliances including a stove, oven, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and large basin sink.
Large walk-in showers. No grimy tub.
A space-saving, stackable washer and dryer in every unit.
There are windows everywhere. We’re talking about a lot of light.
Roof deck where you’ll spend your summer.
A small community. You (should) know your neighbors. There’s only 33 of you.
Amazing location in Shaw. Great restaurants, bars with people you want to talk to, some of the best music venues in the city. And the building’s a block from the Shaw Metro station.
Currently under construction. Ready November move-in.”
