This unusual home is being built near all the great houses of the day I’ve been showing in Forest Hills.

I’m super intrigued by the walkway:

Pretty wild, yeah? The project is being done by Travis Price Architects. I’ll be sure to update when it’s completed.

 

 


This is one of the most unusual additions I’ve ever seen. It looks like they just bumped two rooms out on the second floor. I wonder what the cost was for something like this. Do you think it makes sense? Looks good?


I recall that folks hate curb cuts in the city. This home is located on near 5th and S Streets, NW. It looks to be rather new construction. So I’m wondering – does anyone know how curb cuts are permitted? Should curb cuts be banned on all new construction within the city?


The above building on Wisconsin Ave in Glover Park is one of my least favorite in the city because it clashes so badly with neighboring rowhouses. However the addition below from Mt. Pleasant is one of my favorites. I love that style of wood:


This is the ATF building located at 99 New York Ave. NE. I don’t think we’ve ever discussed this building before and it certainly is unique. Thumbs up or down?

There’s another great photo of it on flickr here.
