The powerful and influential Mary Foote Henderson, whom we’ve previously profiled, commissioned an impressive collection of palatial houses on Meridian Hill in the early years of the 20th century. One of the most prominent of these is the imposing Beaux-Arts mansion at the corner of 16th Street and Kalorama Road NW, which originally served as the French Embassy when it was completed in 1907. This well-preserved building, now home to the Council for Professional Recognition, is a striking expression of Henderson’s vision of Washington as an elegant equal to Paris, with Sixteenth Street its Champs-Élysées.

Last week we saw the beginning and learned it was the “iron work from the old Blackie’s House of Beef.” Even more iron work now revealed. And I’m dying to know if something is coming. STAY TUNED.

“$1350 Amazing Room In Adams Morgan with a View of the Washington Monument
My huge room in a two bedroom, one bath unit on an upper floor of the Calverton Apartments is available. It is an amazing unit with a lot of natural light, hardwood floors, a massive bathroom, two very large storage closets, great and responsive building manager and staff, and rent includes air/heat! Gas, electric, and cable/internet are not included. Laundry is on site, front desk attendant in the evenings (very secure building), secure package delivery, and wonderful building tenants. I can’t say enough good things about this apartment. Across the street is Potters House and Federalist Pig (if you haven’t tried this BBQ place you should!). (more…)

From an email:
“Dear friends: it’s getting cold out there and the Grand Duchess is preparing to go into a brief hibernation. Over the next few months we will be scaling down our operations and closing on Sundays, as we finish the pop up phase of our business and prepare to renovate. In the Spring, we will reemerge with a bigger bar, second bathroom and some cool new banquettes and booths. The vibe will remain the same. The movie nights, open mic comedy and Rock ‘n’ Roll DJs will will be back, bigger and badder than ever. It has been a truly great soft launch so far and we want to thank all of our customers for being so awesome. Please keep an eye out for some special, one-time offers between now and the renovation — and thanks again for your support! Cheers!
