I was trying to get another good contrast of old school row houses against the backdrop of a new condo building but I’m not sure this one worked. For some reason, I really do enjoy checking out the back of well maintained strips of row houses.

Another beaut! Check out the stonework above it as well. And if you have to have security bars these ones are pretty sweet. I guess, all around bad ass is the best way to sum it up.

A gigantic rowhouse that is a stand alone as well. I’m really hooked on the cylindrical fronts.

Holy canoli. This one is sick all around. Nice wood door with a cool glass door behind it, not to mention the incredible stonework.

Another incredible rowhouse. Great windows too.

I’m a huge fan of vines crawling up homes but I think this one may have crossed the line.

I really do like this door. But enough about the door. From time time when I’m taking photos of homes the owner will walk up to me and say “hey what’s up?” so I just say you know, I really like their door, decoration whatever, and normally they are like cool or fairly indifferent. When I took a photo of this door, two young ladies who lived here came up behind me and asked what was I doing in an understandably puzzled voice. So I replied that I was taking a picture of their door, and asked jokingly – hadn’t they heard of door of the day? And instead of the normal chuckle or indifference one of them looks at me with almost disgust but certainly with contempt and says – “and you get paid for that!”. Ha! What a bizarre reaction, right?

A Columbia Heights classic.

Holy awesome. This is a very nice door but obviously there is another feature here that freaking rocks. Check out a close up of the face after the jump. (more…)

Here another couple of examples of some pop ups that I think look pretty good. Do you like the one on the left or the right better?
