1066 Wisconsin Ave, NW
Thanks to Jamie for the heads up. From Bluestone Lane:
“We are now open with a second location in Washington, D.C.! Our new and unique hole-in-the-wall coffee shop is situated within the Georgetown shopping district at 1066 Wisconsin Ave NW.
Housed in the oldest standing firehouse in Washington D.C., Bluestone Lane shares this rustic street front location with the popular shoe store, The Frye Company. Honoring the artisans who continue to handcraft products in this machine-made age, we are excited to join the iconic American leather goods company and together create an immersive shopping and dining experience. We invite locals to enjoy artisanal Aussie-style coffee while exploring Frye’s finely crafted leather products.
The design
The color palette of this coffee shop is disparate from our other locations, featuring a rustic design and warm tones that pay homage to the heritage of the building, and the rich history of the area. The interior design features deep timber finishes, exposed brick walls and rustic textures, creating an authentic connection to the existing Frye store design. Harsher industrial elements within the space are contrasted with chic pendants and white marble bench tops, creating a modern feel that is minimal and sophisticated. Our signature Mercury Mosaics Sea Green tiles marry tastefully with the dark timber and warmer tones complemented by brass elements and touches of greenery. The cassette pass-through window that connects Bluestone Lane and Frye is built into the custom structural steel wall that separates our spaces. Bluestone Lane’s signature vintage Aussie prints and beach shots by Jacob Gordon adorn the walls.
Food and drink offering
Bluestone Lane Georgetown is serving the full range of our premium Australian style coffee, wellness drinks, BL signature cold-pressed juices and organic teas. These will be accompanied by open-faced toasts including the Avocado Smash, as well as a daily selection of delicious pastries and grab and go items. The perfect break for your shopping day!”

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!
The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!
What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
