I don’t care what the haters say, I dig Adams Morgan Day. It’s just a nice feeling. There’s tons of food, music, drinks, art etc. So did anyone check it out? Good times? Better than last year/previous years? What’s your favorite part?

H Street, NE around 8pm on Friday night.

Gentleman in his 30s: “How you ladies doing tonight?”

Ladies: “Fine”.

Gentleman: “I know you’re FINE, I’m asking how ya doing?”

Awesome.

On other H Street news, I had the opportunity to check out the Atlas theater for the first time. It is an incredible building. I highly recommend checking it out. I caught a production of 1984 and it only cost 10 bucks.


Last Thursday was the Ethiopian New Year (on the Gregorian calendar). It has just turned 2001!

On a side note here is a picture of an Ethiopian stew that was being made outside a church near my house. It smelled delicious. I had some language barriers with the folks I was talking to but I did learn it is very spicy…


Remember the Lofstel? A reader has tipped me to some competition: DC Lofty has opened up near H Street, NE.

The Web site says:

“DC Lofty offers an affordable luxury housing option for interns, international and local students in a dorm-style bedroom setting. We strive to be your number one destination for DC, located just a few blocks from the central Union Station metro stop, and shops just within a block!”

Prices are $850 for one month or $700 if you book three months. You can also get a bed for $34.95 a night.

So given the price of rents do you think Lofstel, DC Lofty and other places like this are going to be on the rise?


I don’t know how it’s taken me this long to find it…

It’s located at 18th and Harvard.


It’s hard to find gardens with color this time of year but there’s still a few around…


Thanks to a reader for the tip. As you can still it is still in progress but nearly completed. After the jump take a closer look at the elephant, pretty sweet. (more…)


Wild iron work and most definitely a bizarre lawn decoration. Check out close up of lawn decoration after the jump. (more…)
