I’ve always given this house on 13th St, NW a tough time because of its prison door

House of the Day
This Adams Morgan house has long been a favorite of mine so I was psyched to see it got all fixed up. (It’s located at the corner of Summit and Quarry Rd, NW.
We’ve looked at this style before but this one def. has the most ornate center window. It looked absolutely awesome on the beautiful Sunday we just had.
This house from Woodley Park might not look so unusual at first glance. But if you look closer you’ll see a line of sculptures midway up the house. I’m wondering if folks like these sculptures?

They’re def. a bit random but they’re starting to grow on me.
Not built in DC but still pretty cool:

This beaut is from Embassy row and Mass Ave. NW (I think it’s actually vacant at the moment.) The old school stained glass is fresh as well.
These great row houses are from Adams Morgan. I particularly like the weathered copper up top on both houses. And it looks like the one on the right probably has a phenomenal roof deck as well.
Great house from near H St, NE.
This looks like a standard row house from Capitol Hill approaching Hill East but it actually has a pretty nice addition. I like how it created a roof deck as well:
