Wow, I think this is a really cool looking building. It’s located at 2117 10th Street, NW. Dang, I wish I got a wider angle of it. But I think you get the feel. Thumbs up or down?

A sweet corner rowhome.

We looked at the cool angled one to the right back in February (located on 15th Street across from Meridian Hill/Malcolm X Park). But now the one featured here is really starting to take shape. I guess the real question is what will the surface be – brick (like below) or vinyl? If it’s red brick it should look pretty good especially since it’s on a slope. And I still think the angled one on the right is going to be pretty sweet as well. Do you think this one featured in the photo above is going to look good?

I dig the old tarnished window in the middle plus they have a really nice front patio area.

I think it’s interesting to look at some of the historical pop ups (?) when we judge modern pop ups. I think this row looks super cool. Would the home in the middle be considered a pop up? What do you think of the look of this row? Dang, I can’t remember what street this is but I think it’s in Shaw or Bloomingdale – anyone recognize it?

I was stunned to learn of its purpose. So free PoP t-shirt to the first person who names the street this is on and the function of the building.

I can’t tell you how happy it makes me when readers submit doors of the day. Sometimes I have to be reminded that other folks actually like doors as much as I do. The reader writes:
“This front door is located at 1730 Florida Ave, NW. I first noticed it today although I live around the corner from the house.
As you may be able to tell in the attached photo, and the reason I think this door is a good candidate, is that the door is rather short. I am 5’3″ and wondered if I could walk into the house through it without having to bend my knees. You can also see the front door at the house next door and that makes for a good comparison.”
I believe in the past folks have referred to these doors as “hobbit doors”. They most definitely kick ass.

I always crack up at the picket white fences in the city. Don’t get me wrong, I dig ’em. Actually this whole row is pretty sweet. Anyone recognize the block?

This condo is located at 2531 2351 Champlain Street, NW in Adams Morgan. This looks like a relatively small unit but I think it looks pretty good. What do you guys think – thumbs up or down?
For the curious their Web site says:
Prices start at $554,000 for the only one-bedroom unit in the building (now sold), then jump to $1m for the two-bedroom condos.”

A cab driver was taking me home the other night and said, “oh you live near the new stadium”. I was like what? He was talking about the top of the building that we’d discussed in the past. I never thought of it as stadium like before. But I guess I could see it a bit. What do you think – stadium like?
