We’ve touched on the housing situation in Petworth but what about the condo situation. As we all know the awesome condos being built above the metro will probably be finished in a year or so bringing our eagerly anticipated Mocha Hut… Will the condo market be able to support this addition? Will the condos sell with all those condos being built in Columbia Heights and U Street as well? I’d imagine the developer must be sweating a little bit. Thoughts?


If we of Ward 4 overwhelming elected Adrian Fenty for Mayor and apparently were tremendously satisfied with his job as our Ward 4 Councilmember than how come there is so much vitriol aimed against the candidate he endorsed -Muriel Bowser? If we like Fenty why don’t we want someone who will support him on the council? I haven’t decided who I am voting for yet, I’m just curious why there seems to be so much anger aimed at Muriel Bowser. I’d love to hear thoughts and please not just random bashing.


Recently I was at a dinner when an interesting topic came up: where is the north south dividing line of Petworth? Does Petworth end at Kennedy or Missouri? Is there a North-South Petworth rivalry?

A pretty common response was that the north-south divide exist at Grant Circle. Or perhaps north Petworth begins at the begining of 3 sylable streets ie Allison Street.

Well, I’m not sure of the answers but if there is a north-south Petworth rivalry I’d have to say South Petworth kicks ass!
