1728 14th St, NW
Every year someone writes in asking about this odd looking building on 14th St, NW south of S Street. At one point, a commenter previously said, this building was home to the International Union of Bricklayers and Allied Craftworkers. At another time I heard the retail space might become an Urban Outfitters but that never panned out. Well, it’s gonna get a huge makeover soon. In Oct. DCMud reported:
Plans for the site include the adaptive re-use of the warehouse building, built in 1988, and the new design includes four floors with 28,000 square feet of retail and office space. Of the many developments slated for 14th Street, this is one of the few office concepts (Furioso’s project being the other). Clarkson, who provided an up-to-date rendering to DCMud on Thursday, said Perseus expects to begin construction on the project in February 2013 with a 12-month construction time.

Finding a gift for moms can be difficult. Google “Mother’s Day gifts,” and you’ll scroll through endless lists of beauty products, candles and fuzzy robes. Sure, those are sweet, but sometimes it’s fun to surprise loved ones with something a little more, well, practical!
Here’s one idea: Give her a gift certificate for a home cleaning from Well-Paid Maids. It’s the perfect “thank you,” “I love you” or “you’ve got this” for any mom. She can schedule the home cleaning at her convenience and breathe easy knowing she has one less thing to do.
Our cleaners will take care of everything, including vacuuming and mopping as well as cleaning and dusting countertops, tables, mirrors, appliances and more. Sinks, toilets, showers and appliance exteriors also get a good scrub.
