Man, this is a cool roof deck. Check out how it was built on steel beams and how the sides are glass. It must feel like you’re floating up there. (Found this on in Adams Morgan.)

We looked at this section (1300 Block) of 9th Street, NW in Shaw over the summer and it’s really starting to look good. (More on this strip in a “possibly coming” post at 5pm) No word yet on the retail space on the first floor, I’ll update as that info becomes available.
The Nine is a new small condo projected that was recently completed located at 1316 9th St, NW. Full disclosure: Hipchickindc is involved in this project. There are only four units two of which are accessible through Naylor Alley. That is my favorite part. The carriage house was renovated and extended being rebuilt with the original 1850s brick.

What do you think of the look?
There is also a sweet green roof visible off the balcony in one of the units:

Prices range from $359,900 – $449,900. Hipchickindc provides some inside photos:

Another contrast from Capitol Hill – Do you prefer the doorway set back or the doorway sticking out?


I thought the windows on this house in Capitol Hill were pretty wild. I’ll be honest, I’m not really digging them but I’m wondering if anyone likes this style?

Lots of details all around here. The windows below the stained glass, I thought, were particularly unusual. In a good way…

I thought these were two cool looking pop ups from the Capitol Hill area. Not sure if they’re original construction or additions. Which do you like better?


This one has a lot going on. You can see right away that there is a cool stained glass transom but if you look through the external glass doors the inner door has stained glass as well. Pretty fresh. I can only imagine there is a pretty sweet vestibule as well…

Another from Capitol Hill. I’m totally digging that window/balcony.

Wow, found lots of cool ones around Capitol Hill.
