Anyone know the scoop on this corner market? It looks pretty sweet. Is it just a corner store or do they also sell sandwiches, deli style?

I especially liked that it was on a pick up truck.

From a reader:
On Saturday, August 16, 2008, please join Cultural Tourism DC and the Brightwood Heritage Trail Working Group for the official unveiling of Battleground to Community: Brightwood Heritage Trail.
The unveiling ceremony begins at 10 am with the trooping of the colors by the Marie Reed Civil War Cadets Academy representing DC’s first regiment of Colored Troops. At this writing, Ward 4 Councilmember Muriel Bowser, District Department of Transportation Executive Director Emeka Moneme, and Rock Creek Park Superintendent Adrienne Coleman will make remarks. Afterwards the crowd will be trooped across the street to unveil Brightwood Heritage Trail’s sign 2.
Beginning around 11 am and ending at 4 pm, is the Heritage Trail Stroll, combining the self-guided tour of the 18-sign Heritage Trail (approximately a 90-minute walk) with free refreshments and other incentives from Brightwood businesses and churches along the route. Members of FREED, Female RE-Enactors of Distinction, will portray Civil War era characters, and National Park Service rangers will be on hand at Fort Stevens and Battleground National Cemetery to answer questions.

This is the “Balfour” (huge fan of the name by the by) located at the corner of 16th and U. Is there a name for this particular style? Thumbs up or down? I dig it. Check out some detail after the jump. (more…)

“Attached is a trio of pure trouble from south Petworth (taken while their grandmother was babysitting them).”

This coffee lounge will be located at 2013 14th Street just a few shops north of Marvins and U Street.
With Busboys and Poets being located not too far away do you think this section of 14th Street will support another coffee bar/lounge?

Here’s another example of a beautiful rowhouse that has been divided into condos. (I’m not judging, I’m just saying.) It is located in a prime location at 1360 Kenyon Street, NW.
The flier says:
“Stately rowhome converted into 5 luxury condominiums w/ hardwood floors, top-of-the-line stainless steel & granite kitchens, washer/dryer in units & more! Just steps from the Metro & all of the fabulous shopping, dining and entertainment in Columbia Heights! * * Off-street parking avail for purchase at $35,000 **”
You can check out an interior photo here.
I walked into it and I have to say the layout was a little funny kind of like what they used to call rail road. Anyone else check these out. The location is great and all the condos are 2 bedrooms/2 bathrooms. Prices range from $399,995 – $474,995. The $474,995 unit also comes with a rooftop deck. So given this great location – good deal or not?
