I am a huge iced tea fan. Perhaps you’ve seen the commercials about the new “best stuff on earth” by Snapple. I just have to say – the new snapple is terrible! Not even close to as good as the original. So what’s your favorite mass produced iced tea? I think I’m now gonna have to go with Arizona.
It’s rare to find a green one. I like the division of the glass panels.
A Mount P Classic.
The Black Squirrel is expanding it’s space into the basement level at 2427 18th Street, NW.
And across the street, of course we’ve heard the spy lounge space has closed. Walking by last weekend, I saw that the for lease signs in the window now have a “under contract” listing. Anyone know what may be going in there? I’ll be sure to update as I get more info.

“Hey PoP,
I know you often post cool city signs and I saw this ridiculously cool one on a site I often search for old picture of DC (www.shorpy.com). Apparently 1727 7th Street NW used to be the “Happy News Cafe” back in 1933. Thought this was pretty cool. May not be new info, but it’s new to me.
Check our the High Def version of the picture here – http://www.shorpy.com/node/
I also like the caption under the picture.
And if you want to see the inside of the place, it’s here – http://www.shorpy.com/node?
Very cool!
These new homes are being built on 4th and T Streets, NE. I think I prefer the glass ones we looked at earlier. Anyone dig this style? It almost looks like a pop up built on new construction…

This home is located at 240 Parker Street, NE:
The flier says:
“Cutest house on The Hill! Exposed brick, wood burning fireplace, Miele convection oven, TWO outdoor spaces (patio & upstairs deck), whirlpool tub, washer/dryer, recent double pane Pella wood windows. Possible parking (alley access). 1 block to Landmark Lofts, easy access to Metro/Union Station, H St Corridor, Capitol.”
More info and photos found here.
As H Street, NE becomes more popular I’ll be curious to see how the real estate prices are affected. If this home goes for asking then I’d say they’re doing pretty well. It can be yours for $450,000. Sound reasonable? And here’s another question that I have – do most people who buy in that area work on the Hill in some capacity? But more importantly – what do you think of the house?
