10th and Monroe St, NW
Took a minute but this is looking like it’s gonna be another wild transformation. Probably a bit too soon to judge the architecture but we’ll be back when it’s completed.
Before:
Columbia Heights
new wrap around bar nearly completed at The Good Silver on 11th between Park and Monroe
From a press release:
“The team behind Ivy and Coney (Josh Saltzman, Chris Powers, and Adam Fry) and partner Carrie Dzwil, are excited to announce their newest bar, The Good Silver (@goodsilverdc on twitter), at 3410 11th St. NW in Columbia Heights.
While we still believe hotdogs are a primary food group, The Good Silver will focus on simple seasonal ingredients, pickled veggies, cured meats and a certain banquet beer combo. Think local heirloom tomatoes in August, or strawberries in June, but when Winter arrives a BLT featuring tomato jam or rum punch spiked with a best-of-the-season strawberry shrub will be on the menu. We will also be adding some cutting-edge technology such as credit card machines, bar spoons, and level floors. What a time to be alive! (more…)
Thanks to Peter for sending word:
“The washing machines were removed from the laundry mat at 11th and lamont over the weekend.”
The delicious smelling El Lation Bakery closed back in 2015. Anyone know if the Chinese takeout is still open? Anyone hear about the future development plans of this corner?
Thanks to Emily for sending:
“Saw this Coopers Hawk in Meridian Hill Park on Sunday.”
If you spot a hawk or any other bird of prey around town, lunching or otherwise, please send a photo and an email where you spotted it to [email protected] and I’ll add it to the queue. Hawks around Town is made possible by a generous grant from the Ben and Sylvia Gardner foundation.

I’m hoping this house goes for sale when the renovations are completed so we can get a virtual tour up there! Like the way it’s turning out?
Check out the garage after the jump. (more…)
Mary Stuart Masterson is the most underrated actor from the late 80s/90s. If only I hadn’t donated my sweet tv/vcr combo…
