I noted a colorfully painted rowhouse.

I spotted a classic mural on 13th Street.

I was surprised to find Manischewitz wine for sale next to Wild Irish Rose in my local bodega.

I noticed one way Petworth was keeping it green.

I noticed ‘DC Ballot Box’ was plastered over garbage cans around town.

I sang the praises of the street fruit vendor.

Give me some suggestions as to the colors. Like last time they will be American Apparel in both men and women’s cut.

Check out this link for what I’m thinking. A bit more colorful than last time. I’m also thinking about green or yellow shirts but let me know your preferences.

I wondered if Columbia Heights Coffee was the best place to work or study? Sadly, the comments got deleted in the migration, so if you have a favorite spot put it in the comments.

I wondered if color choices made it harder to sell a home?

Condos above Petworth metro were but a whole in the ground. For those that don’t remember it’s wild to see this photo versus the one I posted earlier today.

I wondered about the intelligence of glorifying bullet hole decals.

I was curious if anyone visited Jeans N Things on 11th Street.

I wondered how important it was to have off street parking.

I prayed the yellow line metro extension wouldn’t be temporary.
Ed. note: I’m still praying.

I wondered if it was possible for a rug store to go out of business.

I found a nice painting covering garbage cans.

How about “coolest neighbor in PoPville”? Snap a photo of a neighbor you admire and send a couple of lines of text about them. I think we may be able to get some really interesting entries from some long time residents. Send the entries to [email protected] and if I get enough entries we’ll make a contest of it.

I wondered if there was any China left in Chinatown?

I showed one of my favorite city Churches.

I ranted about another IMF protest on the Mall.

Well, believe it not PoP is almost two years old. So I thought I’d start a new post highlighting some good finds from a year (or two) ago. By the by, there is going to be a huge two year PoP anniversary party Nov. 13th at Wonderland featuring the bands Milk Machine and O’Tasty (and potentially one more). So mark your calendars. T-shirts with the new logo will be unveiled.

So, one year ago today:

I discussed the merits of putting bricks under window air conditioner units.

I found a decent Pop up (warning, there is vinyl involved).

I checked out Java & Cream up in north country which I think, sadly, has closed.
