Well this sounds super cool:

“This Friday, the Warehouse Theater & Gallery in Washington, D.C., will host the fifth occurrence of the 24-Hour Drawing Project, an international collaboration between Kendall Nordin and Hannah Bertram.

Conceived and first performed by Nordin and Bertram in Melbourne, Australia, in 2005, the project involves a group of artists who work for 24 hours in a row. During the project’s duration, the working space is open to the public.

There is no exhibition after the conclusion of the event.

The artists involved are not obliged to “draw” in the traditional sense. They may instead work on any act of art involving what the project’s founders call “intensive attention or effort.” The atmosphere will be what you, the visitors, make of it.

Please join us for this endurance art experience.

The 24-Hour Drawing Project
Friday, Oct. 10, 10 a.m. thought Saturday, Oct. 11, 10 a.m.
Free and open to the public

The Warehouse Theater
1021 7th St NW, Washington, DC”

This is of course the PNC bank located at Wisconsin and M. I wonder if they’ll need to chip the gold off this property to avoid going into foreclosure…


I had to get this one up for posterity. I suspect it won’t be around for too much longer. Anyone recognize where this is from?


This was a new one to me: Robert Emmet – Irish Patriot, 1778-1803. The statue was erected in 1966 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Irish Independence. I stumbled upon it near Mass Ave and 24th Street.

Be honest – had anyone ever heard of Robert Emmet before? Uh oh, I guess I’ve opened the door to make fun of my Long Island public school education…again.


Once again it’s the details that make this home. It has it all, except a porch…


This is the newly opened Metropole located at 15th and P. I kind of like the left side which has some staggered windows. While I don’t love it, overall I’d say it looks pretty good. What do you think?
