Ed. Note: They forgot the ‘end’ in North.
“Dear PoPville,
Went by the new “Trellis House” apartment building (Sherman Ave & Barry Place) this morning and saw Bozzuto had put out a bunch of signs, so I looked it up.
“We live where the iconic meets the worldly and style is supported by substance. Find us at the corner of Sherman Avenue and Barry Place, in the heart of the historic and dynamic North Shaw neighborhood.”
North Shaw??
That’s a thing? Even if it were a thing, certainly the heart of said neighborhood cannot be found at Sherman & Barry Pl.
I have a completely separate question (although somewhat related since we’re talking neighborhood boundaries): is the border between Park View and Columbia Heights Sherman Ave or Georgia Ave?
I get a different answer depending on who I ask, so it feels like all the houses between Sherman & Georgia along Kenyon, Irving, Columbia, etc. + Bruce Monroe Park are in limbo. The Welcome to Park View sign is East of Georgia, but I don’t know that really settles it.”
Back in the day Park View went to Sherman and the houses to the east were Pleasant Plains but I’m gonna back out of this one because:

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!
