Back in Feb. ’10 this lot/playground was the subject of a What the Helen of Troy is This? post. It is located at 910 S St, NW. I’m psyched to see it will be part of a government auction on Nov. 10th. You can see a list of all the properties to be included in the auction here. Hipchickindc explained a previous year’s government auction to us here.
It’ll be great to see this old lot finally get some love.
