A Long Way From Mario’s Pizza House, Check Out ‘The Exchange’ across from Looking Glass Lounge


3519 Georgia Ave, NW

Wowza.

In 2007 I wrote, “Remember Mario’s pizza? It was without a doubt the worst pizza I’ve ever had in my life. It sits right across the street from Temperance Hall.”

We’ve come a long way…

Lion’s Den in 2011 (above) and now:

“3619 Georgia Avenue, NW is a six-story, 27 unit condominium structure with ground floor retail. The project provides many opportunities to explore the larger urban goals for the up-and-coming Petworth neighborhood while advancing the revitalization of Georgia Avenue’s main retail thoroughfare . The project takes advantage of the multimodal transportation within the immediate vicinity of the site and the pedestrian friendly streetscape. This design is a fresh approach to building in Petworth – a beacon, recognizable from a distance, showcasing a unique design rising above the trees and traffic of Georgia Avenue.”
