Great wild garden here but of course the fence is one of the best in town (from Mt. Pleasant).

As I’m partial to fish and tropical aquariums, this is my new favorite.

I love the bay window on this home from Monroe Street in Columbia Heights.

On Monday the new owners of the ice cream spot, formerly Maggie Moos sought your help in a coming up with a new name. Well, you came up with a good one and they’ve enthusiastically embraced it. The new spot will be called U Scream Ice Cream.
As mentioned earlier, the folks also own the recently opened Aroma Bakery & Market across the street on U. Well they also seek your help in how to make the spot better. What would you like to see improved? More breakfast options? More sandwiches? More bread? You name it and they’ll definitely listen.
So cool that they’ve renamed the spot U Scream Ice Cream! Nice work.

I’ve been consistently getting emails about what possible retail is going into the new Solea building and View 14 building located at 14th and Florida Ave., NW. These are just rumors and not terrible exciting but I hear Solea is slated to get a new sign store and possibly will house a non profit.
Across the street at View 14 I heard some rumors of a gym going in but I hear that plan has stalled. Other than that I’ve heard of no deals signed yet. Anyone else hear any rumors?

Another great shot from cacophony76 (above). And on some days I’ve certainly felt like the guy below taken by Bogotron.

“Dear PoP,
Do you know anyone who has tried the brand new place called Acacia Bistro, 4340 Connecticut Ave. NW, that just opened up in Van Ness? (on Connecticut and Yuma St. where the Schlotsky’s deli used to be). It says that it has healthy food during the day or something along those lines but when I ran by the other evening it looked more like a wine bar that serves food. I am SO excited that there is a hip place walking distance in the neighborhood and wanted to see if anyone had (hopefully good) reviews.”
Anyone check it out yet?
