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

Previously a reader had asked if I had ever posted this building. Gosh, I’m so drunk tired, I can’t even remember the name of this building just north of the zoo on Connecticut Ave. Lord, I’m getting old. Anyway, after the jump see if you can distinguish which is the new wing and which is the old wing. Does anyone know why there was only one wing built for so long? Ed. note: There is a possibility I’m so drunk tired I may not have posted the original wing…looks pretty good though, yeah? Wings after the jump. (more…)

I ran into a friend walking around last weekend (on 16th Street) and she said she imagined this building on PoP. It is pretty cool. But my favorite detail is after the jump. (more…)

Here’s another cool one that is set back from the curb. Plus that window/balcony is pretty sweet.
|
I can’t remember if I’ve ever featured these before. But they’re certainly worth another look.

This row of houses on 13th Street used to look a bit beat up but now with some fresh paint they look, well, fresh.

So I was overjoyed to see it listed as Washingtonian’s Estate of the Week. When walking by this house at 3411 Ordway St., NW you usually only get to see the top three curves but you could get a taste of how cool it was. Apparently it was designed by I.M. Pei. For the curious it is going for $3,825,000. More info over at Washingtonian.
Sweet pool too, yeah?

I could only go so long before featuring this house. This of course is on Logan Circle and was built in 1877 by Ulysses Grant Jr.
Mint.
Lots more photos after the jump. (more…)

Fantastic details.

This one seems to have a bit of a modern flavor. What do you think of the colors? Thumbs up or down?
