Totally modern next a more traditional rowhome. For some reason I feel like it has a bit of a Mediterranean flavor. You dig it?


I have to encourage you to check out a game one Saturday afternoon at Roosevelt High on Upshur Street just west of Georgia Ave. It’s not quite Redskins caliber, well, actually, I guess it is Redskins caliber…


New traffic lights have gone in on 14th and Shepherd as well as Taylor. I think the one at Taylor is very worthwhile, not sure if Shepherd needed one too?

And in brothel news thanks to a reader for sending fromWUSA9 news:

“Two men were shot Saturday evening, one critically, on 14th Street near Quincy Street, NW in Columbia Heights.

Assistant Chief of Police Diane Groomes says the men were shot inside a brothel. Two females ran from the residence partially clad when the shooting happened around 8:45 p.m.”


The flier for this home located at 4305 4th Street, NW says:

“Opportunity in this Solid Brick Townhouse with 3 Bedrooms, 1.5 Baths in up and coming Petworth. Convenient to Petworth Metro, and Georgia Avenue Busline. This home is in Good Condition and is priced to sell.”

More details found here.

Wow, I think I may have found a good deal. This home is priced at $319,000. Does this make it a good deal?


Rue 14 the clothing store that replace Pop clothing (above Pulp) at 1803 14th Street opened October 11th. The store features “Men’s + Women’s: Clothing + Accessories”. The store looks great and I’m particularly happy that this great location hasn’t remained vacant (like the shop next door). Make sure to check them out next time you’re rolling down 14th Street. Do you think this section of 14th Street will support clothing boutiques?
