Judging Buildings – The Metropole

DSCN0395

We judged the actual building, located at 1515 15th Street, NW (by P Street), back in October 2008. But the Metropole has recently come under new management and I was invited to tour the inside. Since I never took a tour last time, I thought I’d snap some photos. There are 90 units in the building and the prices have been adjusted when McWilliams Ballard took over in mid-May. Prices range anywhere from $399,900 to $1,499,900. There are 1 bedrooms, 1 bedrooms with dens, 2 bedrooms and 2 bedrooms with dens, and penthouses with terraces.

I took tons of photos which I’ll post after the jump but what I think is of particular note is that many of these units are two levels with huge windows and a very open feel. Also the kitchens and bathrooms were really high end. I’m told they are in the process of updating their Web site which you can find here. If you’ve been curious what the units look like you can check them out after the jump.

For many remote workers, a messy home is distracting.

You’re getting pulled into meetings, and your unread emails keep ticking up. But you can’t focus because pet hair tumbleweeds keep floating across the floor, your desk has a fine layer of dust and you keep your video off in meetings so no one sees the chaos behind you.

It’s no secret a dirty home is distracting and even adds stress to your life. And who has the energy to clean after work? That’s why it’s smart to enlist the help of professionals, like Well-Paid Maids.
