So I’ve seen a number of lion statues protecting homes but this is the first pair of Mother Marys I’ve seen.

I know I am way late in posting about this but since we’ve been talking about “dive” bars, I’d say Solly’s is a very strong candidate. It’s actually located right next door to the new wine bar, Vinoteca, opening up next week. Solly’s has great bartenders, a really nice owner, a sweet outdoor drinking area, and a nice upstairs area. Definitely worth checking out. (more…)

Wild coincidence. Renew Shaw just wrote a post about this joint opening up next week on 11th and U St. I was going to write a post asking what this was going to be. Alright then, can’t wait to check it out…

According to Fox News Channel 5 four people were shot on 14th and Harvard this evening. I wasn’t able to find a full article on their Web site but I will update tomorrow morning.
And here is the article from the Washington Times.
The article finishes with a quote: “Whatever police are doing is not working,” said Council member Jim Graham, Ward 1 Democrat. “This is a real setback.”

Good lord, have you seen the Verizon Center lately? In the Gallery Place metro there are dozens of posters celebrating its 10th anniversary. And then I see this. I’m not sure if you can tell exactly just how large this sign is but it must be at least 50 feet by 50 feet. It is huge. And this is how they chose to adorn the Verizon Center on its 10th anniversary? Two and half men? Doesn’t the Verizon Center get millions of dollars for the name Verizon Center alone? That’s not enough? They have to put the biggest most garish tv ad up as well. In French we would say the Verizon Center is behaving like a pute.

This is the new CVS located at 10th and U. But I took a look at the little sign outside and it revealed that the CVS is housed in a historic DC building. So I ask you, is it a shame that a historic building now houses a CVS or is it great that the building still exists and there is a little sign to commemorate its past?
According to the sign the building has been an “important social and cultural center. In addition to the Masons, it has housed a bowling alley, ballroom, and restaurant.” And now a CVS. Maybe I’m just looking a bit too deeply into this. If it housed a bowling alley surely it can house a CVS…but, man, a bowling alley would be way cooler.

I know we’ve discussed this in the past but I think the natural brick looks better in this instance, what do you think?

Has anyone checked out this international supermarket on upper 14th St.? (Damn, I forget the cross street.) I didn’t have a chance to check it out yet but I bet you could find some sweet delicacies there. So tell me, am I wrong?
