Thanks again to DC realtor Kevin Wood for compiling this list of home/condo sales for zip codes – 20011, 20010, 20009, 20002, and 20001. Click below on “March Sales” for the full list in pdf format. Please let me know if there are other zipcodes you’d like included in future home sales reports.

I thought this was pretty odd. The Pinz N Needlez Tattoo shop moved one door over from 926 U Street to 924 U Street in the old At&t storefront. What’s the scenario to move one storefront like this? But what I’m most curious about is, will they repaint one of the best shop numbers in town?



I’ve posted this guy before but I liked the addition of a dandelion behind his ear. Made for a nice contrast.

Ah, it’s been a while since I’ve seen I’ve seen one of these. I was fortunate to talk to the owners of this home in Bloomingdale who were super nice. It turns out that they have been working on this door and vestibule for over a year and it’s still a work in progress. It looked pretty amazing to me. They told me that originally there was an old red front door and the vestibule had linoleum floors with the sides covered in artificial brick. I’d say they did a pretty fantastic job. The owner told me he found his new front door (circa 1910 or so) in New Jersey and had a gentleman from the stripping workshop fix it up. If anyone else is looking to fix up their front doors the stripping workshop is located at:
411 New York Ave. NE
Washington, DC 20002

Awesome, yeah?
So let me take this opportunity to make another call for photos from your home improvement photos. It can be a door, a kitchen, bathroom, anything. Email me photos to princeofpetworth (at) gmail (dot) com

Holy cow, this one is unbelievable. Check out the details. Too good. Anyone recognize it?


Thanks to all who wrote about the reopening of Cooper Hardware located at 3459 14th Street, NW. My fear that neighborhood hardware stores are doomed may have been premature. Cooper Hardware will be open Mon. – Sat. from 9am to 7pm. Whew.

Are there specialized fire houses that deal specifically with chemical fires? This shot was taken by sophiagrrl on Georgia Ave.

Wow, I think this is a really cool looking building. It’s located at 2117 10th Street, NW. Dang, I wish I got a wider angle of it. But I think you get the feel. Thumbs up or down?

The great weather brought some phenomenal photos to the PoPville flickr pool. This one is from jreinh01
