Back in April a reader sent in photos from the “Wonder Bread” building at the 600 Block of S Street, NW. The original reader sent a number of shots of old bikes that it turned out belonged to the defunct Shaw Bike Shop. Another reader was able to find some old photos they had taken. It’s pretty wild. Ed. Note: Please enjoy these photos but do not try and enter the building yourself. You can be arrested for trespassing but more importantly you can get hurt. Thanks.

We’re about a month out from summer. That means you’ve still got time for spring cleaning!
Lexi Grant, an operations manager at Well-Paid Maids, shared her go-to spring cleaning tips with WTOP News. Step one? Declutter. Get rid of items you don’t use, find space for items that need a home and organize those areas.
Then, it’s time to dust. Lexi starts with high-touch surface areas (think: refrigerator, dishwasher, counters, microwave). One area she sees often neglected is the bedroom — and it makes sense. Heavy furniture is difficult to move around, but it’s important to really get in there so dust doesn’t affect your sleep.
