I thought this was a cool little corner house near H Street, NE.

House of the Day
|
I think I selected this house for door of the day once. The whole house is pretty sweet though. It’s located just off 18th Street on Florida (or is it U at that point…).
|
We’ve looked at a different house on this block, 4100 Arkansas Ave, before. It is truly a phenomenal block. I was struck by this one because I remember it was for sale back in the day and it looked like it needed a lot of work. It’s looking good now. The room with all the windows is surely a great spot for a morning cup of coffee.
A reader sent me to this block to check out a GDoN nearby so stay tuned for that one.

While it’s a little bit obscured by the tree I think you can get the flavor of it. Amazing brickwork and cool window.
In Lieu of “Coming and Going” Please Accept a Carriage House and a Question I’ve Been Meaning to Ask
|
Typing at a computer all day and night, my neck is killing me. Last weekend I walked past Lunar Massage at 1101 5th Street, NW. They say 20 minutes for $26. Is that a good deal?
And here’s the carriage house folks have been mentioning when talking about the “pink house” at the corner of 4th (or is it 5th?) and M Streets, NW. Absolutely awesome!

I really liked the detail above every window:
|
This beauty is from the 1400 block of New Jersey Ave, NW.
|
This fantastic one is from Capitol Hill.
|
Can’t remember if I’ve posted this one before but it’s very striking because it’s the only one I’ve ever seen that has an extension in the front of the house.

I really like the style of the one on the left. But I’m wondering if it is skinnier than the one on the right or is it just an optical illusion?
